Hotel Suites Mar Elena

Very comfortable rooms. Good tv channel selection. Nice courtyard/lounge area. Nice coffee bar next door. Beach is a short walk away. Markets and restaurants within close walking distance. Surrounding areas need new sidewalks, traffic control lights, and cross-walks.

All the staff there is very accommodating. They went the extra mile upon every request that I had. They take pride in keeping the place clean and organized. A nice lady even swept and mopped my room every day. It has a nice central location. The rooms have real authenticity (they have been converted from condos) and the suite that I had, had all the amenities (tv, full refrigerator, range top w/ pots and pans, toaster, table with place settings for four). On top of that everything is new! They are undergoing construction. To be fair, they offered me an upgrade to a room that was not adjacent to the one that they were currently improving. My bad. The wifi was non-existent in my room and was spotty in the court yard. They believe it was due to the construction and assured me that it was in the works to upgrade it... The price really offset these two factors and there is plenty of restaurants and hot spots in town to catch up on email and Facebook...I also found it nice after my initial withdrawals to take a break from the relentless onset of of data....
