Excellent service and super friendly staff. Enjoyed the pool greatly. Our room was double booked, but the staff went out of their way to find us a room for the night 50 yards down the street.

Muy agradable

De principio fachada y la ubicación no nos brindaban confianza pero dentro de las instalaciones aunque es un hotel sencillo es cómodo y agradable que tenga una alberca en jardín con palapa con la opción de convivir y preparar o llevar alimentos eso convierte la estancia agradable, atención especial del dueño y encargado muy atentos, buena comida para desayunar, excelente estancia

Puede mejorar la limpieza de las habitaciones

Se obtiene un servicio equivalente a lo que se paga, es un hotel muy economico, los servicios son igualmente limitados, la limpieza de las habitaciones se hace muy superficialmente.

Es barato pero hay mejores opciones

No fue buena experiencia, el acceso es difícil ya que las calles están en pésimo estado, el patio se ve bien pero la habitación no tiene aire acondicionado y hace demasiado calor, los insectos entran con facilidad a la habitación incluso en el baño encontramos un alacrán, las camas son incómodas y la atención deja mucho que desear.

Lulled to sleep by the sound of the surf

I'm not sure where I liked hanging out best: the rooftop with views to the Pacific, the pool, the dining room or my room. This is a great place and only steps to the beach to watch the waves and the amazing sunsets.

Bien en general

Creo que tiene una buena ubicación, está a escasos metros de la playa caminando. Cuenta con un excelente servicio del personal encargado. Consideró podrían mejorar un poco la privacidad ya que las Cortinas no cubren al 100% y revisar los ventiladores creo les falta potencia.

The property was fine, but my flight was unfortunately delayed and I arrived around 11pm. Everything was dark and no one was around so I rang the bell a few times as no one came the first couple times. When the manager arrived, he was grumpy with me because of the time and ringing the bell 'too much'.

El personal es muy amable. El hotel muy sencillo. Sin aire acondicionado. Acceso complicado. Pocas medidas de higiene. Aunque el precio es económico, por las reseñas de los huéspedes yo esperaba un poco más.

Great place to stay

This hotel is amazing! The beach is a 3 min walk away and this location is only a 10 min walk away from the main strip, which is nice because it is way more quite and peaceful. The staff is super attentive and the food they serve here is delicious and very inexpensive. The pool was clean and very relaxing. The room was great. This will be my first choice for a hotel next time I go to Puerto Escondido.
