Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
The villa was super cute, very clean, and the area very walkable. They had security as well, which was an added plus. Two things that could be improved— internet speed was ridiculously slow or nonexistent at times. I also asked for an iron at 6pm and they just told me, sorry housekeeping is gone until tomorrow. So the service lacked a bit there…

One major problem was the bed bugs, they were very bad. It almost ruined our trip, and it might still if we can’t get them out of our luggage.

Aging hotel in a good location
The hotel is located in what is probably the best part of town, with relatively easy access to a good surf point (it's still a walk and a half to get to the water, but that's always the case unless you are right on the beach). Rooms are large, but their age shows. Showers offer either good water flow or hot water, but not both. I had to basically hike to my room that was located at the top of the hill. The hotel lacks the charm and cool factor of Somos, that's right next door. It is across the street from the only "disco" in town, but the place seemed to be a bit of a dive. The hotel doesn't offer late checkout at all, which I found problematic.

Nice, neat little property. Stayed in small hotel room. Clean with simple and pleasing teak decor and tended grounds. A/C and patio or porch with chairs, table and hammock. Staff has been kind and helpful. Not a resort. A good value. Enjoyable pool area. Close to restaurants. Short walk to beach.
