"No internet and registration was rather difficult. The woman who appears to run/manage the place was insistent that we did not pay even after showing the confirmation email and booking page from Hotels.com. Our flight was early so we didn't get to have the breakfast but they were setting up for it when we left...so that happens (but I wouldn't count in internet when you're there). It was def bare bones and appeared clean enough."
