Awesome view with a suprise tax
View of the room to the sea and facilities were awesome, I paid extremely cheap thanks to the hotels.com bonus points but since my husband paid with his credit card they charged me a surprise "tax" that ended being more than a payed for the room but in general was still cheap. Room was clean but the air condition had a loud squeak when turned on.

Las habitaciones estaban sucias, con olor a humedad, no tenían mini frío.
El hotel estaba sucio, mal olor y el staff poco amigable. Reserve 5 noches y me retiré del hotel a penas llegué y no me devolvieron mi dinero. Ni el Hotel, no Expedía.
No lo recomiendo. Las fotos en la App no muestran la realidad.

AVOID THIS HOTEL - WOULD GIVE NEGATIVE STARS FOR RATING IF POSSIBLE.
The Staff was very accommodating, however, the property is on terrible condition. My air conditioning did not work so I changed rooms and the hot water did not come on regardless of how long the shower was on in the new room. The furnishings were old and the bed was hard as a brick. The linens and towels are low quality and no blanket in the room. The pillows were old, flat, and smelled. The room entry door was a hollow core door and when you left the room at night the corridor lights were off and did not come on until you reached the elevator. The air conditioning was controlled by the hotel with no thermostat in the room.

Great Breakfast
The breakfast was phenomenal!! The reservation almost paid for itself with that amazing selection. If you need a place to stay that is cheap, no frills, and in a great beach location… you’re on!

I really enjoyed the hotel. It was better than i had anticipated. Near the beach and also near many resturants. The food served at the hotel was buffet style and was good.

My second time staying here and I am always comfortable. I took advantage of the dining options this time around and ate breakfast, lunch and dinner in the cafeteria. It helped saved money and time, since I didn't have to really go out looking for food. Friendly staff and I was happy to see familiar faces and they recognized me after a whole year.

Lo peor hotel en Bocagrande - facilmente !!!
Horrible. Habitacion super vieja. la cerradura en la puerta no se funciono. comida en el restaurante asqueroso. super frio siempre con aire acondicianado a 18 grados y no puedes cambiarlo. 40 minutos por el check in. 30 minutos por el check out. Lo peor hotel en Bocagrande. La unica cosa buena fuera las piscinas y ya !!
