We paid 700 Pesos for one night, one of the cheapest places to stay in this area. The rooms are big, come with A/C, fan, fridge, TV, big single bed, hot shower, are very clean and beautifully designed. The landlord is super friendly and always smiling. The place is very central, you can reach the beach, stores and restaurants with a short walk. We loved it here and can only recommend it!

This room was immaculate. Everything was comfortable, clean, complete, and well thought out. The proprietor was warm, hospitable, and accommodating. I originally intended to stay one night, but stayed for four.

Wir verbrachten hier eine Nacht und waren sehr zufrieden. Das saubere Zimmer ist mit allem ausgestattet was man benötigt. Einem bequemen Doppelbett, Sessel, kleine Kommode, TV und Klimaanlage. Das Badezimmer ist gross und man hat warmes Wasser zum duschen. Wir konnten unser Auto im Innenhof parken. Wir haben uns hier wohl gefühlt.
