The must terrible experience was electricity off for several hours, the first and second day, was too hot! Facility was dirty.

No tuvimos energía eléctrica durante las dos noches de estadía (30 grados centígrados), la planta eléctrica fue priorizada para la discoteca del hotel pero no para las habitaciones de los huéspedes. Por lo que no contamos con aire acondicionado ni agua potable y eso era realmente insoportable. Los consumos de alimentos y bebidas realizados y cancelados en el restaurante el día de ayer no fueron facturados porque indicaron que no tenían sistema

Fun place. Room had a huge mold spot on the ceiling.

Only issue washroom had no ventilation, only window for light purposes

Yes

Run down loud and dangerous

Room is awesome and very clean and the staff are awesome and very friendly and helpful!

Amenities not as advertised: Very loud music in bar until 1 AM on Friday night and to 02:30 AM on Saturday night. Very loud in room and hard to sleep. Not advertised that there would be loud music/high noise levels in rooms at night. Internet advertised as available in all rooms: No wifi in our room at all and only available on some common areas Cooked-to-order breakfast included advertised: Voucher only included cold options apart from pancakes. Beach facilities advertised Beach cabanas (free): No sun beds / beach cabanas at all available Beach club (free): Doesn’t exist. Only a bar by beach. Also, we expected the lovely beach to be nice and peaceful but it is allowed to drive cars and noisy diesel beach buggies on the entire beach area causing it to be anything but peaceful.

Es un lugar muy agradable frente una playa increíble.

Staff was courteous and helpful.

Excellent service

The staff was friendly, but that’s about the only good thing we can say about Johnny’s Place. The website advertises four pools—but that’s incredibly misleading. Two weren’t even filled. One was filled but right next to the garbage area and reeked of trash and what was clearly a dead animal nearby. The only clean, usable pool was behind a gate and reserved only for guests in specific rooms. After we complained about the smell and false advertising, we were reluctantly allowed to swim there—for one day. The next day, the stinky pool was even worse, and when we used the clean one again, we were kicked out. We asked for a refund if we weren’t allowed access to the only sanitary option, and they refunded the remaining nights. The room had no ventilation aside from the A/C, which made everything feel stale. The shower barely drained, so by the end, we were standing in 2-3 inches of water. Worst of all, the tap and shower water were salty. Not just off-tasting—salty, like ocean water. We never felt clean, even after washing our hands or showering. The on-site restaurant was mediocre, and food options in Monterrico are very limited. Between the unusable pools, false advertising, unclean facilities, and poor overall maintenance, this place was a complete disappointment. It was a waste of time, money, and energy—frustrating, unpleasant, and not at all what was promised. Avoid it.

Not good organized enough

Love this app

Upscale Mediterranean style for the adventurous and budget-conscious traveler. Located a couple of walking minutes down a rather dodgy block littered with trash and various properties in disrepair, Johnny’s is an oasis in the generally depressed area of Monterrico. The food was good, the staff was fantastic and the property was beautifully maintained in some parts and a work in progress in others. We had one of only two rooms with an ocean view, which meant blaring music on Friday and Saturday night until midnight and 1:00 a.m. respectively. If you’re in one of the oceanfront rooms, you’ll be situated directly above the sound system. Saturday night’s party was festive, attracting visitors from all over the region with a full dance floor of traditionally partnered pairs. On other nights we enjoyed the sound of the waves crashing onto the shore. The room was spacious and suite-like with a separate bedroom, lounge area, bathroom and waterfall shower, however repairs such as the shower not completely draining, the shower window not capable of fully closing and a door that clearly suffered from previous break-ins. There is no safe in the room. Our spacious deck included a refreshing splash pool, which was perfect for cooling off while lounging in the sun.

Can be better

Han subido el precio a todo entonces deberían invertir en mejorar las habitaciones ya que están bastante descuidadas, hay una discoteca los fines de semana que solía ser segura pero ahora dejan entrar a cualquier gente y solo llegan a emborracharse. Ya no se puede bailar por lo mismo.

We had an excellent experience! The hotel was clean and attentive!

Bad smell of drainage

There was too much noise in the swimming pool underneath our window. Other guests had loud music until 11pm.
