This is our fourth time staying here since they opened and Arena Hotel continues to be the lodging of choice for us. We love the hotel. It’s clean, quiet and comfortable and the location is ideal for us. Also, a special shout out to Josefa, the nice lady who cleaned our room each day. She did a great job and we always enjoyed saying hi to her each morning.

Great hotel. Very centric. The only inconvenience I see is that they don’t hace an iron/ steamer or access to one or laundry for that matter. So make sure you bring a portable one or clothes that won’t wrinkle

Perfect location with friendly staff

As many other have pointed out, the location is absolutely perfectly situated near both main beaches, and the front desk staff were very helpful and efficient. The rooftop bar and restaurant was also terrific.
