"Clean room, excellent staff, rooms are small, but cozy. Hotel is not near the beach, and there isn’t a view, only from the rooftop. The concierge, Edwin, was very kind and friendly. There is no hot water in the premises. It has a small pool, and water is cold. If the purpose is to stay one night and move on, this is an excellent choice."
