Irene is a great, caring host. She is very nice, gave us a nice gift because it was our honeymoon, and even gave us a ride to the airport even though our flight was in the middle of the night. She is fixing up the hotel -- it is not a fancy place, but it is clean, and at a great location by a very quiet spot on the beach. Just down the block is a restaurant and supermarket. Would recommend if you want to stay near the black sand beach.
