Hay una recepcionista que tiene muy malos modos y muy mala actitud con los clientes
8.0
Excelente atención, es sencillo físicamente pero para los que buscamos algo para pasar el rato si me encantó.

La ubicación es buena, los precios muy accesibles en temporada baja y es muy limpio el lugar... Aunque la encargada parece estar malhumorada eternamente y eso rompe el encanto. Las habitaciones son muy rústicas, limpias y ordenadas, pero se ve que no ha tenido mantenimiento en muchos años, lo cual deteriora la imagen. Si no te importa la experiencia del hotel, para estar frente al mar está muy bien.
