My husband and I stayed here one night only in a standard room with a full size bed. We were supposed to stay for 3 nights for the end of our 12 day trip. We left quickly the next morning. The room was very small so if you are a couple DO NOT get a standard room with one full size bed, ask for a large room. We did ask for one of the better rooms upon reserving, what we got I would not consider better.
The room was big enough for a full size bed, a 3 x 3 table with one small chair, no dresser, and a small 3 foot rack w 3 hangars to hang your clothes. The light did not work but that was a quick fix, needed only a light bulb change. The bathroom door knob came off when I tried to close the door. My husband lightly leaned on the bathroom sink and it just about came off from the wall. No water pressure and very little hot water, maybe enough for one short shower. But to be fair the other hotel we moved to also had very little hot water so it may just be the town. The floors did not feel swept. The space was very cramped. The room reminded me of a room you may experience at camp as a kid. No tv and cable in every room as the website states. My friends stayed 2 doors down and did not have a tv either, not that I cared to watch tv but if you advertise it you should have it. Wifi was poor and most of the time did not work. I could not wait to get out of there. I was packed and ready to leave the next morning by 6:30 am. Our friends left as well.
Because of the policy, we were not entitled to a refund. At 50.00 a night I guess you get what you pay for.
Positives: The staff are very nice, there is a decent pool, ping pong table, liquor bar, juice bar, and I hear the wood fired pizza is very good. We did not stay long enough to try the food. There is a small selection of surfboards to rent as well.
PGI would be appropriate for surfers just looking for a place to crash and surf. It is a block or less from the beach. Very BASIC place to lay your head. If you just want a roof over your head, running cold water, proximity to the beach, then this place is for you.
Marbar next door is awesome! The fish tacos are fantastic. Manrique took good care of us.
We moved to the Rip Jack a few doors down and had a great experience.
