Absolutely love love love this hotel. My balcony literally had water right under it. Regardless of any location in the hotel you will hear beautiful ocean waves all night long. Amazingly good breakfast with lots of options. Close walk to everything. Definitely stay here again and recommend you do.

I feel sad abouth this but the staying is impossible at surf as all the area surrounding the hotel in under construction and almost impossible to find. I tried to call them several times before my checking and there was no one to pick the phone. I thought it was a scammed. After 30 minutes i found it but there was not a accessible parking. Trafiic was unavailable and they wanted me to back up into traffic to find a place. I decided to leave. I will not recommend staying here solely beacuse outside hotel conditions. I did not stay therefore can not review the hotel. although I step in the lobby to try to find someone to talk. Not easy. Vibe was not for me.

Great location on the beach and next to boardwalk

ENGLISH:
The closest hotel to the heart of the city of La Libertad located directly on the beach. Just a one minute walk to the boardwalk with amusement park, restaurants, and shops. The hotel rooms are simple and to the point. Good size bathroom and comfortable beds. The pool has a great view of the ocean as does the rooftop bar and restaurant. The breakfast was unforgettable. I ordered the typical Salvadoran breakfast. Never imagined it so delicious and presented so beautifully. The hotel staff is superb. Free parking with overnight security.

ESPAÑOL:
El hotel más cercano al corazón de la ciudad de La Libertad ubicado directamente en la playa. A sólo un minuto a pie del malecón con parque de atracciones, restaurantes y tiendas. Las habitaciones del hotel son sencillas pero grandes con camas cómodas. El baño es de buen tamaño con agua caliente y bastante presión. La piscina tiene una gran vista del océano igual que el bar y el restaurante de la azotea. ¡El desayuno fue inolvidable! Pedí el desayuno típico salvadoreño. Nunca lo imaginé tan delicioso y tan bellamente presentado. El personal del hotel es magnífico. El estacionamiento (parqueo) es gratuito con seguridad nocturna.

Don’t do it

My friend and I had the room with 3 double sized beds. Don’t trust the photos, everything is staged. I don’t mind that the furnishings/bedding in our room was ugly, but I do mind that it was very dirty.. It had no windows so it felt like we were in an ugly, dirty box. We paid for 4 nights but stayed 2 - which would have been none but we had to wait for a room elsewhere. During our 2 nights we refused to use the shower, no words for the level of gross and extremely poor lighting. no maid service and we were given 1 towel each for a 4 day stay. The door to the room had a push lock - the kind you use in a bathroom for privacy, not for securing entry into a room. No chain, no deadbolt. The pool was algae green and the pool deck is very small. The restaurant did have a fab view and food was decent. We ate there twice and one server/bartender was seriously creepy. His very 1st question was asking my friend if she had a husband or if single. When she ordered a drink substituting alcohol for soda, he demanded to know why, even asking if she was pregnant. Three separate times he later smirked that he added tequila to her drink. My friend has been sober for 5 months. The hotel has 5 rooms, no one at the front desk at night, and the main entrance has zero security measures. Literally anyone can come in. Hated 90% of our stay. Combined we have been to 130 countries & only care about a clean room and to feel reasonably safe. Big fail at AST.

The hotel is decent the beach side stairs need repair and the rooms are beautiful! Best beds and pillows I've ever imagined! The staff is kind but is not efficient, we waited 1hr for the breakfast. Then we had issues with the lunch too, the lady in charge offered a late check out as compensation and apologized, she's a great person. Still I think the restaurant needs a manager desperately, and better training for the waiters. The guy that helps in the parking lot deserves a raise and a bilingual welcome letter with the hotel rules and hours of service would be a great addition for next time.

Convenient but Overpriced

Staff is lovely and very accommodating. Food in the restaurant was fresh. The location is very convenient to the fish market and other restaurants. The hotel needs updating. Lots of exposed rebar and crumbling concrete. The door to our room was very difficult to lock properly. When we reported to the site they informed us that the area was very safe and we shouldn't worry. Not exactly the solution we were hoping for. Overpriced for the condition that it is in.

A two star hotel. Best 2* in a town with only 2 star hotels.

The restaurant is very good but limited beverages( beer and beer)

There is no beach, just bowling ball size boulders. Room has sliding class door that cannot be locked from inside. Bed is comfortable.
