Great location, cheap and the photos are lovely, aren't they? Don't be fooled: it's dirty, has old and broken fixtures and fittings, food is poor, some of the electrics look quite dangerous and the pool is murky. But far worse than any of this, I am pretty certain that the hotel tried to set us up with a taxi robbery... More

Stayed at this hotel in march 2009. The only positive with this hotel is the location. We came in the evening, there were no persons who could speat english. We had to use the fingers. The room was bad, the same was the breakfast. Not clean on the rooms. No, this was not good.

We stayed one night in this hotel between our flights expecting that we could sleep fine. We came late at night and were lead to a room that had a broken mirror and old style and much used furnitures. The bed was tough and when I looked under it I saw that it was also broken in the middle. The... More

I'm amazed the Hotel Viru Viru got such a high rating on Trip Advisor. I stayed there last May with my father and we were far from impressed. First of all the rooms are very small, somewhat dirty, and we had to fight for things like towels and for a room with air conditioning. Also, the breakfast buffet in the... More

Given the limited accommodation options in Santa Cruz, this is OK. It isn't anything like the standard it thinks it is or tries to be, but it's a fine base, the best thing being its location - conveniently close to the main plaza. It is the standard of a hostal really, but without any of the charm and individuality of... More
