There's a lot of Pro and Cons to this hotel.
First off, this hotel seems to be new and incomplete. A lot of things are just half way done but they are opened for business to help with cost I'm assuming.
The staff are really nice and accommodating but won't be upfront and honest about the things that they know visitors won't appreciate. I am listing the cons first because I know that it can be easily remedy
Cons:
They accept cash only, we ended up paying in US dollars. For 3 nights it was $370. A bit much for all the cons we experienced....
1. The A/C unit is mounted on the wall but we were fooled as it wasn't hooked up yet. This is a problem when its over 90 degrees and 80% humidity. We brought this up to the front desk and they apologized and asked if wanted a full refund knowing it was too late to look for another hotel nearby.
2. The kitchenette wasn't set up, no cooking utensils, no pots and pan, and the stove wasn't hooked up for cooking or reheating.
3. Rooms with the street can be really loud, if you have a hard time sleeping (especially when it's hot), don't stay unless they have the A/C hooked up.
4. They only set up with 2 pillows, 2 towels, an all in one shampoo, conditioner, and body wash. Limited supplies.
5. No entrance to pool, not that we were really wanting to take a dip since the beach is nearby... the layout was just unwelcoming.
6. Wi-Fi: if you need to work while on vacation and need to have reliable WiFi, don't don't don't. I think it only works if you're in the lobby.
7. TV doesn't work. Isn't hooked up. Works only on Wi-Fi.
8. POWER OUTAGE, there's nothing like a hot night with no fan.
9. They changed the locks on us.... They gave us a set of keys and on our second night we tried to get back in but the key wouldn't turn.
We went to the front desk and they said they upgraded to a new set of keys... Yup....
Overall, maybe I should have negotiated my price, but it is done and I get that they are still learning,
PROS:
1. Cute layout. Once it is complete, the room will be very welcoming.
Just call ahead to make sure that their AC is working.
2. The staff are friendly.
3. Location is perfect to the beach, it's walking distance. If you walk down towards town (pass the school) you can see the chicken grilling man, walk down that path. Voila, there's the beach. Walk to the and you will happily stumble upon the beach bar. Pretty sunset spot. :)
Once they have it figured out, most of my cons can be pros.
Good luck if you choose to stay. Let me know if they've improved! read more
