Everything was super clean! The staff was extremely sweet and kind!! Also, breakfast was included which was a huge plus :) only thing was that there was no hot water - it was a bit colder than room temp. Then the following day, there was something wrong with the pump everywhere so the water was coming out brown and the toilets weren’t working so basically you were very limited with resources.
Loved this hotel it’s a cute cozy place to stay. The rooms were clean with very nice decorations. Definitely recommend to stay at this place. If you don’t care to drive Uber is very cheap to get to the restaurant strip of surf city.
Initially, we thought the area around it looked pretty slumish, but it is extremely safe and a short walk to the beach.
The rooms were spacious and clean. There was noise from the road but the owner was extremely nice and a place is extremely clean and for the price was a good deal.
Had a fantastic stay at Hotel El Viajero, right near the beach. Check-in was a breeze and the place is super safe and clean. Staff were friendly, appreciated the on-site parking, effective AC, and comfy bed. Great value for money. Highly recommend.
This property is a little further down from El Tunco. It’s one of the more affordable properties around El Tunco. It’s cute, clean and small, and the staff is friendly.
Great place along el tunco, everything is near by restaurants, sunset park, you name it. Honestly hands down convenient since there were 4 others along with me. Rooms are spacious even with multiple beds.
Perfect location if you are trying to spend time in El tunco. I walked back to hotel El Viajero at 2:00 am from El Tunco The walk was safe, the gate is closed but the door is unlocked. The guard was great. The staff is amazing. The rooms are really clean. I Stayed in room 7.

Disliked: Staff & service
They didn’t knew about my reservation and after one hour waiting the guardian told me, I’ll give you any room I have available…. So zero for service. Good location, convenient, the breakfast was included and good food. Finally it worth the money but need to improve big time the service.
