"The only problem was the ants that we had to deal with in the kitchen and some creepy crawlers that we figured were part of the experience. The location is amazing, with cheap eats and safe quiet nights. If you’re into late-night walks on the beach without the hustle and bustle of tourists, this is your spot."

8/10 Good
"The room was great, and so was the view. The only downside was that there isn’t a front desk area to check in or ask for help. Upon our arrival a security guard pointed to my name on his phone, left for a few minutes and brought back a key. We stayed for 4 nights and no one came to the room to ask if we wanted our sheets or towels changed. Besides that, the restaurants food was also good, however on our third day I get very sick from a breakfast we had. I am more than certain it was the eggs (if you’re coming from the states be aware, dairy products are not pasteurized out here) overall though I say the experience was a 4/5 for our first time here."
