The stay was really very pleasant and the location of the hotel and particularly the room provided had a fantastic view. The staff were very pleasing. We really loved staying in the hotel. Thank you very much.

Great location, with a real balcony view of the sea. It is very near a bus stop, and sits atop a great bar. Two blocks from a grocery store. Breakfast is simple (toast and coffee), but waking up with that and the beach makes it a good place to start the day. Hard to meet people, however.

El hotel estaa muy sucio y viejo, habian cucarachas y arañas. Además las camas estaban muy blandas, era imposible dormir. Sinceramente no volvería jamas

Perfect location. Unfortunately our room was a little bit cold in February but the view to the beach (from my bed!) is unforgettable! So, highly recommended! :)

Fantastic views for the price! We had a private room with a balcony and ocean views! Breakfast is a bit lame, and staff are a bit aloof, but you can't beat it for price and its perfect location.

The rooms are a bit rough around the edges, but the location is handy to public transport, and our room had a balcony overlooking the sea, which was a stones through away. The staff were also very friendly and approachable.

breakfast is terrible, location is fair enough (rigth cross the sea, 10min to clubs 40min to sandy beaches and 20min to city center with the bus) lacking of air condition kills you if you go at summer time... other than these not bad at all...

I didn't like the look of my room so I changed hotels immediately. You do get what you pay for, and this room was cheap for a reason. Good location, but the rooms were just dirty, dark and not very secure.

The breakfast is average, but you can eat and drink practically as much as you would like to. The place is noisy during the nights but it's nothing unexpected. The hotel is hidden near the main street, watch out well or you'll miss it (we did). Highly recommened as a budget hotel.close

Overall the place is well worth the price that you are paying with location of the place. It is right next to the beach, and the bus stop, but the water was yellow when you first turned it on. pretty good comp breakfast, and 24 hours front desk.
