Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was fantastic. The rooms were clean, very nice, and definitely worth the price, although they felt a bit stale. The service was friendly, but the cleaning and service staff were slow at times. The location was good, away from the Puerto Vallarta crowd, with a clean pool area. The dining experience was nice, with a buffet style offering, although they ran out of food in the late afternoon.
The hotel offers a genuine Mexican homely vibe with basic rooms overlooking the vibrant community soccer, skateboard, and party zone. It was fun to watch, although it did get a bit loud late in the evening. The service was efficient and friendly, but some staff seemed disinterested. The location is perfect, situated between the beach and the charming town of Mismaloya. The dining experience was very Mexican and repetitive, with fresh and tasty meals. Facilities were on point, providing a comfortable stay.
The hotel has a cozy, authentic Mexican vibe perfect for a getaway. The rooms give that homely feel we adore when visiting Mexico, featuring a comfortable bed, quiet air conditioning, and a nice, hot shower. However, the service had its downsides with questionable treatment of local animals. The location is ideal, offering a jungle-like ambiance with bird sounds and a convenient position between the beach and Mismaloya. The dining experience, although very Mexican and with fresh, tasty dishes, left room for improvement. The facilities are a mix of positives and negatives, but the overall value for money is decent.
I enjoyed my stay at the hotel. The rooms were basic but good value for the rates, located above the lively community soccer/skateboard/party zone, which was entertaining but got noisy at night. The hotel had a few drawbacks but overall, it was a decent experience.
The hotel had a mix of positives like great proximity to the beach and being a quiet spot, but it also had some drawbacks like outdated parts and being a bit far from the city. The service was friendly, but lacked information about tourist attractions. The dining was a traditional Mexican experience, although somewhat repetitive. The rooms offered a mix of comforts like a hot shower and uncomfortable aspects such as poor lighting and security concerns.
The hotel offers good value for the low rates with spacious rooms featuring cooking facilities. Although the security locks were missing, the view over the community soccer/skateboard/party zone added some fun, yet late-night noise can be a downside.
