### Marea Sol Hotel

8/10 Good

"Updated building, very clean, amazing location, with balconies that give you a glimpse of the ocean and beach. Love the furnishings, bathroom layout, and comfortable beds. Good vibes all around! Would have been a 5-Star experience hands down. However, the extra security lock on our room door did not lock, as the hole did not line up with the bolt. Also, our balcony lock also did not work. Because the property is so nice, we still felt safe, but I think every lock should be in working order in any hotel."

### The Aqua Pacific Hotel

2/10 Terrible

"I booked about 30 minutes before arriving around 11:30PM. When I got there, the front desk was unattended. After waiting and looking around, I saw a clerk and went back to the window. He seemed annoyed and told me there would be an extra $20 charge for checking in late, saying he “is not paid after 11 PM” I explained I had just booked through Expedia and the price shown was all-inclusive, so any fee should have been disclosed upfront. He didn’t respond and simply handed me keys. When I asked where the room was, he vaguely pointed behind him. I eventually found it, opened the door, and there was a man asleep in the bed. I startled him and he jumped up quickly—it appeared to be an older, homeless man. I went back to the front desk and told the clerk someone was already in the room and that I had just walked in on him. His only response was “oh really,” before taking the key and handing me another set with no apology or explanation. When I suggested he should verify rooms before assigning them, he ignored me. The second room was empty, but by that point my wife and I felt extremely uncomfortable and unsafe, worried someone else might be given a key to our room. After about 30 minutes, we decided to leave. The front desk was unattended again when I tried to return the keys. As we were leaving, in the parking lot, we saw what appeared to be the homeless man sleeping in his car with an aggressive dog barking at us. I booked another hotel for 17–18, but after paying, it changed date"
