Sofia Bunik is in a GREAT location. Close to 30th Avenida and about a 12-15 minute walk to beach. I rented the slightly larger room and it is a nice sized studio. Appreciated the stovetop, blender, toaster and kitchen utensils. The customer service can be improved. Upon arrival, there was no one at the desk. Someone came out about 10 minutes later. Early check-in is not available even if the room is available. They have a strict 3pm check-in time. The internet in the room that I had did not work. I tried to work from rooftop but was kicked off internet a few times. I went to lobby to get assistance with this. I was given other WiFi’s to join but it was hard to join feom lobby. I had to go to rooftop, to gain internet to run to my floor and get in WiFi. No assistance was offered with this at all. Lastly the water was off on Sunday for about 8-9 hours. When I went to the desk to inquire I was told that it was due to water maintenance in the area, which I totally understand; just wish this had been communicated prior to. Rooftop is super cute and relaxing. Great price but small changes (in customer service) would make this a great option.

Did not have any hot water. It took two days for them to fix it. WIFI went out for the last three days of the trip. They never did fix that. Maid service decided not to service the first two days. Hotel staff failed to help maintain a safe property. Sunday night a full blown knock down drag out fight on the lobby floor. Staff did not call authorities and just let it go on.

This is not the first time I have stayed here but it was very questionable this time.

Location was in a fairly quiet neighborhood and a 10-minute walk to 5th avenue. The rooms were basic with no real amenities, and the beds were hard and linens were very thin. The AC was great! The shower had limited water flow and the balcony looked onto the roofs and backyards of the neighboring properties. The pool was ok...would have been better, but there was a leak in the pool so construction crews were chiseling, sawing, scraping, patching the entire week. The pool level was also lowered. The hammocks were nice, but they smelled musty. Staff were very nice and the property was clean, but I can't say I'd stay there again...the weekend nights were very loud with partying weekend visitors, but other than that, the place was super quiet.

The location was excellent as it was centrally located within walking distance of restaurants and shopping. The staff was friendly and helpful which was very much needed with the ongoing issue of the electronic key becoming deactivated several times during my stay. Toward the end of my stay the battery to the digital lock died and it took so much time, energy and effort for staff to replace the battery. This was inconvenient because I had just returned from an excursion and needed entrance as soon as possible. The swimming pool was clean except there was work being done and I could not muster the courage to get in after seeing all of the electrical wires exposed while the workers completed the renovations. The water pressure was poor at best due to the sulfur / egg smell and temperature- room temperature. The last two days of my stay was filled with the unforgiving pounding and loud noise of renovations in the next room. I was not provided with notice or the courtesy to be moved to another room.

Stay was just OK. Stayed with my family. There was always a shortage of towels, either pool towels or bath towels. We needed enough for 4 ppl. Also, no blankets. The sofa bed can barely fit a kid or two, not for adults. WiFi issues throughout the stay. Staff was annoyed about asking for password many times for the kids tablets. No AC in common areas, super humid and hot in elevator. The experience was OK overall. It would have been nice to have friendly staff excited to see us and offering recommendations around as they do not have a restaurant on site. We had to find our way around tow. However, the hotel is in a good location, walking distance to everything.

We had a few glitches though. The futon in our room was broken and we had to prop it up with a backpack. Ran out of bathroom tissue and was told there would be none available until the next day at 9am. Obviously we got our own;)
Ultimately the front desk staff is pleasant but basically powerless to help with much. More of a condo with a reception.

I enjoyed my time until the last night! I changed rooms a few times on purpose to check them out! All were good except the last day & night.

I went to check in I immediately felt claustrophobic.

I returned to the front to explain I paid for the balcony and I refused to stay that room! The Receptionists told me there is NO CONTACT NUMBER for anyone only an email address to \"info\". I was very concerned and at that time learned there is no one to rectify issues immediately. We both sent emails and she did receive a response to change my room. She told me I was \"going be upgrade without charge\", my response was \"No, I paid for the balcony room\"

Otherwise she was polite but she is only capable of checking you in! I dropped my bags and left. Came back at midnight to learn the shower didn't work and cant be fixed until next morning.

Note: they are VERY STRICT about checking in & checking out at EXACTLY 3PM no time sooner, even if the room is ready and available.

I thought it could be a simple switch of rooms especially because the room was ready, because she stated it was however they dont allow early entries. She told me \"Im sorry, please wait 10 more minutes\" when I asked to go in at 2:45pm.

Please be aware when booking your room at this hotel - the traditional studio is located on the main floor of the building and does not have an outdoor balcony. We made this mistake when booking. Instead it has what looks like a closed in patio that is dark, full of mosquitos and smelled like mold. We were not able to pay to upgrade our room when we got there - our stay would have been so much better with an outdoor balcony - it was not nice to eat or hang out in a dark room with no proper windows.

The rooftop pool area is really nice. And the location is really nice - we got to easily explore the city by foot.

Be prepared that the kitchen is sparsely equipped - we had to ask for a second chair for the kitchen table, and a cooking pot. They are pretty good at getting these items when requested.

We stayed in the superior loft. Upon arriving everything was clean and tidy. We had everything we needed. We didn’t notice much sounds in the supiorior loft as we were tucked away at the concern of the hallway.

The pool area was lovely, however the only this was we had to constantly chase the sun as it moved throughout the day:/ the layout was meh.

We actually had to move rooms as we extended our stay. We moved into a smaller room which we actually loved more. There was more light, bigger deck and instead of cement we had glass railing, which allowed more natural light into the space. The only thing we noticed about moving to a new room was the noise. It was a bit louder but we brought a sounds machine with us so that helped:)

Really enjoyed. Would come back!

My wife and I stayed here from March 19 to 26. We had a first-floor suite with a kitchenette. Overall, it’s a beautiful place. The room was spacious, very clean, and had a small balcony that was more than sufficient for our needs.

The rooftop is really nice, although in my opinion it doesn’t have enough space when the hotel is at full capacity—especially if you want to lie down and sunbathe. That said, the pool itself is quite large. Interestingly, the jacuzzi was actually colder than the pool, which felt a bit odd.

The main downside was that the front desk staff member we interacted with spoke very little English—or at least didn’t seem willing to make much of an effort. He often switched to Spanish even though it was clear we didn’t understand it.

Despite that, we had a great stay overall. The location is excellent—very close to Mega Soriana (a large grocery store) and the fantastic Fuego Santo Steakhouse : )
