Hotel Portonovo Plaza Malecón

The hotel and rooms where clean. You could smell the cleaning supplies used upon entering the room initially. The restaurant is open from 8-12pm with minimal selection.

My initial room had a view of several rusted air-conditioners. I requested to move and was placed in a room with two twin beds (I’m traveling solo). The only two view options are the noisy street below with people talking and vehicles going all day and night or a view of another street and a hotel in back that completely blocks the ocean and sky. We also had a storm while here, my balcony on the 3rd floor flooded and spilled into my room and the ceiling began leaking. I told the clerk while on my way out and they told me they’d tend to it. When I returned 5 hours later, the water was still on the floor, my trash had not been emptied in 2 days and my bed had not been made either. They did switch my room quickly. Thankfully, it was my last night. I would not stay here again, even for the price. Additionally, each time I tried to go to the pool it has been closed so I haven’t been able to use this amenity.
