Casa del Sol

It’s dated and needs repairs, and it didn’t feel like a place for a long stay. It’s about 30° all the time, with bugs crawling everywhere, so look for a room with air conditioning if you can’t handle that. For twenty bucks more a night, I got a really nice room.

This was a terrible hotel in a terrible place. There’s construction all around, and the hotel has been renovating for six months. It’s dusty, dirty, and noisy, with awful noise every day from 8 a.m. The water is shut off at least once a week. If you want to relax by the sea and sun, stay somewhere else, because this place will ruin your vacation.

The water is often shut off, and the lobby is dirty and littered with construction debris. Ants and tarantulas crawl around. There’s noise and dirt everywhere: trucks rumble in the supermarket parking lot, and construction is happening all around as well as at the hotel. Workers start at 8 a.m., and management won’t respond to requests to start repairs later. Everything is bad here. Choose somewhere else to stay.

I visited a while ago and really liked it. It’s in a great spot near the bay, bars, and supermarket, and seems ideal for a trip with friends. I liked it a lot.
