"Yes"

"Breakfast was good and everything was fine"

"Positives: - smooth airport transfer, arranged via chat beforehand - friendly front desk staff - safe residential neighborhood, somewhat walkable for Nicaraguan standards, with a shopping center 5min away on foot Negatives: - the room felt extremely damp and had a musty smell, probably due to the shower that was not separated from the sleeping area (the shower / bathtub was directly in the room) - the hotel is showing wear and tear, a deep clean would have helped but ideally it needs to be refurbished - so many mosquitoes, needs regular fumigation - no windows in the room, poor air circulation and very dark - tiny toilet, felt very claustrophobic I have to be honest, I decided to stay at another hotel after viewing the room. 5 minutes in the room gave me uncountable mosquito bites. I myself come from a tropical country and I do understand that insects are somewhat unavoidable in outdoor areas, but the amount of mosquites in the indoor areas are unacceptable. It’s a sign that the hotel is not regularly fumigated. The room had a distinctive musty smell and it felt very uncomfortable. The driver picked us up and brought us to the hotel, but that was basically it. Zero hospitality, barely brought us to the car, did not offer to help us with our bags. I’ve had a better experience with your average taxi driver. "

"Staff friendly"

"The place is nice with the beach and swimming pool. Their bathrooms are terrible on the resort. Also the cleanness of the rooms are okayeesh. But the bathroom looks really old and needs more work. Also the house keepers are very protective and slow on replying for extra towels or toilet papers. The rooms has a lot of insects entering due to cracks through the doors and window. This place needs a lot of fixing in order to maintain tourists coming from out of the country. Because it seems like the locals are the only ones keeping them up float. The only great plus I can give them is their swimming pool and beach. But staying there I wouldn’t recommend it just because of how the rooms are pourly maintained. Also the dinner is great but it seems they reuse some of the food from lunch. "
