There's a reason why this hotel was cheap, cockroaches, spiders in shower and shower didn't even work, mini fridge didn't even work, had to cancel. No one at front desk after 8 pm to help with issues. At least next day staff canceled next reservation and refunded money.

The place is horrible, I went to sleep in my car instead. I did not wanted to sleep in that dirty bed. Also the windows are broken, they do not close so I didn't feel safe sleeping there.

This place is so bad. I stayed at the bungalow and it was so nasty I wanted to run away but unfortunately we were at ocean world and went to check in late it was 9pm and I had my kids , there was no place I could have found another room that late, the towels had marks on them, thankfully we had our own towels. The windows lock are broken I couldn't sleep because of safety, I was up all night making sure my kids were safe since the windows don't lock. The place is so run down and smells like dogs right when you walk in. I would definitely never stay there again.

Travelers, beware. You have to cross a treacherous road to reach the beach and restaurants from this hotel. I was careful, but still got run down by a crazy motorcycle and was taken unconscious to a hospital where I had to pay $2000 to get out the next day. The same thing happened to another guest two weeks before. I prepaid for 10 days. The accident happened the first day, but the hotel refused to refund any of the rest of the stay. Moral: if you stay here, book by the night. Otherwise, its not a bad hotel.

This place is beyond grim. There are far too many dogs running around so the lobby smells like a wet dog, which is a terrible first greeting. The check in was fine albeit a slight confusion in getting to our rooms (our fault with our bad Spanish) but the rooms are horrifying. There are ants and cockroaches on the floor, the towels & sheets are grubby and stained and there was hair in the bathroom drain. We didn't even have a towel to stand on after we showered so our room became a wet mess. I'm glad we only had to stay here for one night before we checked in to an Airbnb. The only redeeming feature is the location as you are really close to the beach and some great restaurants. We also stayed in the hotel room rather than the bungalow, we heard those were in a slightly better condition. You get what you pay for, so if you do decide to save a few pennies and stay here make sure you bring your own sheets, towels, and cleaning supplies!

No hot water, and the tub didn't drain, buttt... Late check in/out, super affordable, 5 min walk from the heart of beach nightlife. Comfy bed and nicely appointed room. Room is an independent bungalow, so nice and quiet. Nice pool. Safe.

Super friendly hotel with spacious rooms and a lovely pool Beds were comfy and an overhead fan and breeze kept us cool without AC Small kitchenette with refrig and stove were in the room. Restaurant on the premises with early morning coffee or breakfast and a bar. All the staff were very friendly and helpful The owner takes in stray dogs who greet you and are well behaved. The vibe is casual and walking distance to shopping, beach, kite boarding, swimming and restaurants. Will definitely come back to Hotel Kaoba!

Worst hotel I've ever stayed at! I would recommend anyone stay elsewhere. The rooms are very outdated. The stove in either room didn't work. The shower never got warm the entire week I stayed here, and only trickles out. The television volume didn't work so I wasn't able to watch the NBA finals. The bed was rock hard and was unable to get a full night sleep any night. Sheets were dirty in all 3 rooms they placed me in. The bedding had nasty stains and an odor to them in every room. The property is very unkept, trash all over courtyard by pool. The pool looks as though it hasn't been clean in ages. Toilet flooded my room had to switch in middle of the night. The property is overran by dozens of handicapped dogs in self made wheelchairs and most have one eye and legs bent. Its freaky like a scene from Pet Cemetary. The dogs literally bark and whine all nigh and the staff just allow it. There is an aweful odor of wet dog all through the hotel even seeping into your room due to the overwhelming amount of dogs. There is dog poop on the lobby floor and stairways. The owner/caretaker was very uninviting and seemed to have a perpetual attitude for no reason. The overnight staff partied almost every night with loud music and arguing in Spanish as well as partying in the pool all night. Very unprofessional. I would never stay here again and I would highly suggest hotels.com remove them from their list of acceptable hotels. This place is less than a 1 star. It needs to be condemned.

Hotel Kaoba is a great value. Not luxurious and not perfect by any means but certainly worth every penny. Location is great, rooms are comfortable and secure, and staff was very helpful.

Check-in was easy and staff were helpful and friendly. It was worth the money. I would stay at this hotel again. The pool was clean, rooms were decent with a stove and refrigerator... it is located near the beach and restaurants... It had wireless and a television. Bathroom is large and staff was willing to do whatever necessary to make things suitable.

I enjoyed my stay very much. The beds could have been softer, but that is just my prefference. The outdoor pool and the covered patios were great. Loved sitting on the balcony at night under the palm trees.
