On the beach hotel, plus a block from the 5th...so that beats anything! The breakfast at their restaurant overlooking the beach made it all worth it. The property is a bit old, the rooms were simple and lacked the amenities of a higher star hotel, such as tvs/room service/furniture...I mean, there were no hooks or chairs or dresser in our room to put our stuff, but I can overall say it was a pleasant stay. They accommodated us when we decided to extend our stay (and it was over the holidays)! We are pleased w this place, just wished they put a little love into their rooms, update/furnish a bit better.

This Hotel is right on the beach which made for a very relaxing stay. It’s also very close to 5th avenue and all of the restaurants, so strolling and finding great places for dinner are easy. Can’t beat the Pelicano for the price.

Great location, excellent staff. Can improve by obtaining a power plant as when we arrived was no power and we had to wait about 3 to 4 hours, could not check in, could not entered the room until power can back. No compensation for the inconvenience.

Great location, service and price! Will return!
This little boutique hotel is a total gem. All staff, from front desk to restaurant to security people, is super friendly and helpful. It's right on the beach, easy availability of beach chairs, umbrellas, towels. You are a few steps from the "5a Avenida" with tons of restaurants, bars, etc. Surprisingly, we could not hear any of the noise from it at night. The breakfast that's included is great; you get your choice from their full breakfast menu that includes Mexican dishes (chilaquiles, huevos rancheros, etc) or more international fare (avocado toast, eggs benedict, etc). Our group of 5 reserved one beachfront room and one beach-view room and we could not be happier with what we got for the moderate price that we paid. There is a convenient affordable parking lot a couple blocks away (10th Av and 10th St ). There are only a few minor "negatives": There's a lot of light coming into the rooms at night; blackout curtains would be great! There are rocks at the bottom as you enter the water so you have to be careful to not stumble or scratch your feet on them. The hotel was a little hard to find...Google maps lead us to a random spot several blocks away; probably because the streets right around the hotel are pedestrian only. So, whether you drive or take an Uber there, you'll need to walk a couple of blocks with your luggage. Also, the inside of the hotel has several steps with no handrails that were a little hard to navigate for our older relatives, especially at night.

Great Location!
Great location beach front and walking distance from the bus station. Friendly staff went above and beyond to accommodate all our needs. Delicious local breakfast included made to order and fresh. Perfect beach front Bar to seat and relax at the end of the day enjoying the view. The only pitfall was the Jacuzzi on the 'honeymoon' suite that was not operational, but the views from up there compensated. Will definitively be back!!
Beautiful View from the Honeymoon suite!
