Perfect location across the street from the beach. A little run down inside but the AC works well and it’s not very expensive. Expect to hear music all night. Would stay again

Well... If you like to party.. then you will love this hotel..! For us.. this was NOT a good place to stay for the week.. We are not party people anymore.. We prefer to get good sleep instead.. but even with earplugs we could hear horrible chaos outside.. :( and the windows didn't close, so good luck sleeping.. we could literally feel our bodies bumping from the music being so loud almost every single night we where there.. all around the hotel.. all night long we heard screaming, crazy motorcycles and what sounded like police chases.. quietest time of the day was probably around 12noon or 1pm in the afternoon.. only 2 positives came from this hotel.. one was the proximity to the beach was nice, and the wonderful air-conditioner.. since the low at night was 82 every night.. real feel during the day above 104° in April. Aside from those 2 positives.. sadly this just wasn't a great place for us for our 10 year anniversary.. also.. as soon as we stepped foot out our hotel.. EVERYDAY we where asked if we wanted to buy drugs.. 5 or more times every day just trying to walk to the beach from the hotel.. not recommended for young children or even teenagers... exercise caution..

We were met with a situation where we needed quick accommodations because our prior hotel cancelled on us the morning we were traveling into the country. Staff was quick to assist us via WhatsApp in late check in information, willing to stay and meet us when we arrived, and even changed our dates (per our request) without penalty when our flights were delayed by 24 hours. The willingness to work with us, quick responses, and generosity of this hotel will never be lost on us.. thank you Zulu for saving our trip!

Great little hotel a little away from the beach front so more peaceful but very walkable. Beautiful little veranda for everyone to share at the top. Comfortable bed and clean rooms. Parking out front on sidewalk area. Lots of shopping and restaurants and bars all around.

"It was ok "

8.0

This hotel was ok. The decorations were nice although the photos online look nicer and good location to the beach. They had games in a common area and help your self to coffee or tea. They don't really offer any type of service other then front desk and house keeping. And be careful for the man outside of the hotel who "helps you park" and demands money - nothing lower then $5 USD You might be able to get away from him by telling him your staying at Zulu
