The dorm was clean and had ac The pool and drinking water were nice to have as well. It is very close to the beach, but about a 35 minute walk to el tunco When I arrived, I wanted to pay with card (it states that cash is preferred, but card payment is available) I was told that absolutely no cash payments were allowed under any circumstance. When I extended my stay by one day though and brought up the policy, all of the sudden could pay with card which was weird. Still was pretty decent overall.
