Nice Area
The personnel was very friendly and the area was very nice. Rooms do need a little upgrade. The only thing I did not like about this hotel, They only give you one beach towel per day, I drop mine in the pool so I went to EXCHANGE it, NOT to keep both. And they told NO, Only one use per day

Great location and fair price
Great location and a fair price. The property is older but was probably really beautiful in its prime. Its a bit tired but you can't be the location for the price. It was a great value!

Never again, hotels.com
Hotels.com allowed us to book a room when the hotel staff said there were no such rooms available. The hotel staff were great but hotels.com representatives were absolutely horrible in handling this, later blaming this on the hotel and claiming they were only "mediators." There was no resolution and my family had to split up and stay with friends for the night.

We loved being in the new part of the hotel and having a little balcony looking into the ocean. Our room was very quiet except for the crashing of the waves! The hotel is located close to the Malecon and there were lots of dining options.

A good place to stay on the beach
My usual go to place to stay while vacationing. It is an older hotel past its glory days compared to most timeshare resorts. (This one is not part of any timeshare company.) That is what gives it its charm. It is located in the romantic zone close to a lot of shopping and popular restaurants and bars, all within walking distance. The staff are friendly and helpful always.
