The website (expedia) photo are very diffrent. Room has a bad odor, noisy ac, and sadly a very poor neighborhood with houses with poverty on a garbage field. All the dirt are floating on the sea.

We loved this hotel. The staff are amazing and the location is great; only a 1 minute boat ride from Isla Colon which takes you directly to the hotel. The room was very spacious with comfortable beds and a small fridge. A half hour stroll through the friendly neighbourhood and you on the other side of the island. The only thing worth a mention was the air conditioner was a bit noisy but we found the nights were cool enough without it.
