The location is great with easy access to beach, restaurants, shops and events. The hotel itself is great but needs a bit of renovation to make it more modern and plumbing needs to be improved as the toilet easily clogs up. But overall it was a great stay.

Location, Location, Location AND we booked the ocean view. It is an older hotel so being right on the ocean the stove, fridge and faucets are corroded from salt air, this put me off at first BUT again the view and LOCATION is awesome. It has an elevator that is a real bonus. Wonderful sleeping with patio door open listening to the waves. Beautiful sunsets and view of the pier right from the balcony. The front desk and cleaning staff are excellent. We will definitely stay there again.

We stayed 4 days and loved it. Everything is within walking distance, lots of restaurant, shopping and of course the beach. The staff was very nice and friendly. The hotel is old so if you expect modern and new, don’t book.

This was a very small, but very nice hotel, right on the most popular beach in Puerto Vallarta. Loved the sound of the waves at any time of the day! It does not have a direct access from the beach, but you can go through the restaurant Si Señor. The location was so perfect for my getaway. An OXXO minimarket accross the street, a pharmacy next door. Parking is not easy but Ubers and Taxis can take you anywhere. The personnel was very accomodating and courteous. It isnt very new, but all common areas were kept very clean. Does not have a pool. Wifi worked great. I would certainly recommend them and go back again... and again...

This property is located on the beach and next to the pier. Also lots of restaurants, bars etc a short walk away. For the price, well worth it. I recommend paying extra for an ocean view...can be a little noisy by the street side.

This is a very nice beach hotel. We faced the ocean with great views. Sadly, the pigeons enjoyed the view as well. they should do something to keep pigeons off the rail. Other than that, all else was quite good for an older PV hotel in a superb location.

El hotel está en una buena ubicación y el personal en general atienden muy bien. Lo único que me molestó sobre manera es que cuando reservé indicaba que habían facilidades para estar frente a la playa (sillas, sombrillas y toallas) resulta que esa área es de un restaurante y el restaurante le da prioridad a los clientes que consumen con ellos, dejando a los huéspedes del hotel sin lugar y sin comodidades. Lo reporte al hotel y quería hablar con el gerente y me indicaron que no habría gerente durante toda la semana. Realmente no deberían ofrecer facilidades que no pueden cumplir y que sin propiedad ajena.

Loved the older building and area of town where it is located. Getting around was a breeze, food was amazing and locals were so nice. The downside was that is got really loud on the street at night, and that made it hard to sleep. Your mattress is set on a 3 slab of concrete and is not super comfortable. If they would have put down a box spring or something in between the mattress and the concrete it would have been much better. I asked the front desk staff 3 times if I could check out an hour late at 1pm. Every time I was told the manager would be in at 2 and to come back. Every time I came back to ask again I was told the manager would be back the next day. Super frustrating

The pros: The staff were lovely, very helpful and friendly. The location is wonderful with lots of great restaurants within easy walking distance. Cabs are readily available in this area as well. Easy walk down the Malecon. The view is the best thing about the hotel. One of the best in PV. The bed was comfortable and the AC worked well. In room safe provided. I would definitely only get a waterside room. Con’s: The rooms are not sound proof between them. When the neighbors come in at 2 am you can hear everything! The bathroom was a very awkward design and not very clean and the shower was broken so that it sprayed all over the bathroom and soaked the floor, the toilet and the toilet paper. Super low toilet… good thing the awkward wall was right in front of you to grab onto to help you stand up!😂 We had heard that the building had been renovated but only the lobby seemed a bit different.

Located on a gorgeous beach, close to wonderful restaurants and night life. This small hotel is fun/funky and a good value. It does need some updating: especially the tile floors and balcony furniture. The excellent staff more than make up for its deficits.

Exactly what we were looking for - no crazy frills, but everything you need to enjoy a beach vacation. Friendly staff and very centrally located. The rooftop has a lovely view and you are steps away from the beach. For a lower budget option, Emperador rocks!

Good location, if you want to be in the Romantic zone. Area is noisy at night so avoid rooms facing the street close to ground level. Person at reception was helpful and gave us good recommendations on places to eat
