Note to self: No airconditioning
This little hotel is charming in a Havana kind of way. You get the real feel of third world living, but know that the people are super friendly and the beach is just a walk away. Our hotel room had an infestation of carpenter ants, but coming from Florida, this wasn't a big deal for me- almost felt like home during hurricane season (summer) with no a/c. Unfortunately we couldn't even open the windows to let the cool evening air dissipate the musty smell of the room due to the reality of mosquitos. Had the room had screens, this would have made a world of difference for me. I was unable to sleep most of the night because the lack of fresh air andbecause of the warm room climate. What I truly did enjoy, though, was the two hotel workers that did everything. They greeted us, they cleaned all the rooms and ran the bar. They didn't work together- there was only one at a time. My heart goes out to them because you know they work so hard, but they do it with a smile. They even played a couple of shots of pool with us when no one was ordering at the bar. Nice and lovely girls. If you choose this hotel to stay at, order a few drinks and leave them a huge tip. They deserve it.
