Manta stay
Hotel was basic. Somewhat run down. Our room was large and accommodated us- we were a group of 7. I believe it was overpriced for the amenities available and for the type of room. Pool was being serviced and unavailable.

Staff was intimidating scary. Made me feel awkward and unwelcome.
Room was in bad condition as was the rest of the hotel. In disrepair.
Located in a bad area with no safe parking.
There were no toiletries or water. However they did provide them when requested and "the man in charge " arrived.
The room was way over priced. It was $60 per night. I stayed in much much nicer places for $25 per night.
Evidently I was wrong for assuming Expedia had some standards regarding hotels they list.

Las condiciones en infraestructura no son las mejores, pero la zona y ubicacion lo valen. Se supone q incluia desayuno pero no me dieron informacion al respecto al momento del check in. Para ser zona tranquila bien, pero se escucha mucho la bulla del mismo hostal adentro.

I like the area very peaceful, clean. Around the area was hard to find restaurants. The beach was clean and beautiful. Near to the hotel you can find a big Mall.
