Good for what you pay for. Looks like a mall turned into a hotel. Free parking. Okay place if you want something cheep in the hotel zone. Room was nice, weird pictures on the walls though.

Parking was a nightmare, sound travels through every crook and cranny, no A/C in common areas, no hot water.

For the money, the rooms were large, beds were king sized, and all clean. The hotel has little amenities but there's a cute coffee shop with a great breakfast on the backside. My teenage sons loved exploring the old hotel

8/10 Very good

Check/in was great and the attendant was friendly and helpful. Everything was clean and the A/C worked well. However it was difficult to find the entrance which was around the side of the building itself, which is a converted mall. In essence, there is no natural light inside the room and no views to any grounds as such. But there was a good number of lights inside the unit itself.
Denise, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This has been a fantastic hotel that is now past its prime but still very comfortable, inviting and intriguing. The staff are helpful and the morning breakfast buffet is very good.

The room was big and quiet with good AC, we only had one cockroach, and the location is close to the heart of the hotel zone! There is also a beautiful beach right nearby (just walk through the fiesta they’re nice). Overall very happy with our stay

10/10 Exceptional

Each employee I encountered was friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. They were patient in answering my questions. I want to commend the women preparing the breakfasts. The food was good, hot and tasty! The restaurant was clean, airy and comfortable. The rooftop pool was an unexpected treat.
