This is already the second time I stayed here. Rooms are nice, they have two categories, so you can choose depending on your budget. The cheaper ones are without air con and smelled a little bit dump (but I think that was the typical hot tropical dump kind of smell). They were definitely clean! No matter which room you choose...

This place has a kind of funky charm. The rooms are very basic but seem clean enough, the staff was friendly and helpful and the pools were clean. However, when we pulled the bedspread back oet ready for bed, the sheets were so thin and threadbare we could clearly see the mattress through them. There is not even a mattress... More

We stayed in this hotel for 3 nights. Staff were not helpful at all to begin with. The room was a million degrees without A/C. Nothing exciting. No hot water, which was fine as it was a million degrees in the room. Lizards wandering in the room. Very small pool which they don't clean often so you need to pick... More

"It is very unfortunate that the guests had a bad experience at our hotel. We take the security of our guests and their belongings very seriously. On the night in question, our hotel and other hotels in our neighborhood were the victims of a series of robberies. Thankfully, no one was hurt and only a few of our guests were... More

The first night we stayed for $45 but the rooms had no air but were very nice for the price. So we moved across the street to the rooms hanging off the mountain w/ air. You feel like you are right in the jungle!!! GREAT pool area to hang out with our friends in the shade....gringos need some shade!! Saw... More

If you like well kept and clean site in a jungle atmosphere with wildlife murals on the walls, and a troop of monkeys playing in the trees while you't enjoying the pool, this is a unique place. The ten or so best rooms are air conditioned, across the road from the lobby and have their own small outdoor pool. One... More

My husband, I, and our three teenage children stayed at this location for three nights in December 2011. We had adjoining rooms across the street from the lobby. One room was equipped with a kitchenette, which was convenient for a quick breakfast before we headed to the beach or hiking. The rooms were not luxurious, but they were clean. We... More

Our room was dark and damp and very small. The beds were uncomfortable and pillows lumpy. We had to ask for extra towels because nothing would dry and no beach towels were offered when asked. I wouldn't stay here again. More

We stayed in Mono Azul on a family gettway from the city! The hotel is very cute with easy access to everything, the gardens are beautiful. The staff make the place special, very friendly and attentive to ones needs. It made a big difference considering we travel with a small child. In the 4 days we stayed an excellent time,... More
