Unenjoyable stay
For this budget price I just hope for clean and safe. However the room’s door handle was loose and barely locked, felt very insecure. Mattresses had plastic covering under sheets so very hot. Housekeeping did not service the room but took away all the towels (which were hung up, not on floor) and refused to replace them unless they were tipped. Fridge in room very noisy. Generally, the room and hotel smelled like mildew/mould.

El hotel bien, camas cómodas, desafortunadamente la habitación no tenia ni teléfono ni plancha, que son básicas, pero tenia horno de microondas y frigobar que no son basicos. Creo que un enchufe mas puedo haber sido funcional ya que eramos dos y no podiamos conectar dos celulares a la hora de dormir.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The location is excellent, very close to Quinta Avenida, but without the noise. An easy walk from the ADO bus station. All the staff were very friendly and helpful. Great options for food and all amenities. The beach is super easy to access. All in all, for the price,I really enjoyed my stay here. Would stay here again.

2 night stay at Sahara Hotel
This hotel is fine for budget travel. Very centrally located. The property is dated and could use a total renew but beds were decent, shower was hot and the room was clean.
