We had a great stay at Pension Playa Samara. It's a classic travelers lodge with nice seating in common spaces to hang out and chat with the other guests who were friendly and informative. The staff are fantastic: friendly, helpful and kind. The rooms were comfortable, clean and quiet. The A/C worked great, and the pool is clean so you have options for places to while away the hottest part of the day. Breakfast was delicious and included lots of fresh fruit. The location provides easy access to the beach, lots of restaurants and some shops. The area is safe and quiet. If you get up early and take a short walk, you can find monkeys in some nearby trees. I would definitely come back here. This place is excellent value for the money.

Great place with really helpful staff. They have nice clean, quiet rooms. This is well priced. The location is excellent for accessing everything in Samara while being in a quiet neighborhood.

STAY AWAY!
CANNOT RECOMMEND THIS HOTEL AT ALL. This is a very noisy hotel. People were continuously showering in the shared bathroom next to my room all night long 230am-4am and talking in the hallway loudly and inconsiderately. The ad did not mention a shared bathroom but I still agreed to stay here after I was told on check-in that only one room across the bathroom was occupied and that was the room who was making all the bathroom noise for hours, from 230am to 4am. I had room 2 next to the shared bathroom.

Very rude time to shower and loudly open and close doors. I could hear the faucet knob squeaking everytime they used it which was a lot. I even knocked on my wall to indicate they were loud but that didn't help at all. It only got quiet after 4am but it was too late for me to relax and sleep by that time. I hardly slept here and checked out very early and without a shower. So, I got little sleep and no shower which is the minimum a hotel should provide. Even the coffee was cold.

People talking loud while using the shower between 2-3am inconsiderately without caring for others trying to sleep. Non private bathroom not spelled out in the room details. I can hear the shower knob squeaking while they use the shower, turning it on and off.

Friendly and helpful staff. Room and kitchen could use an update. Flooding could be a problem during rainy season. Breakfast was a nice added touch to our stay

En todo el hotel solo hay 3 TV El resto de dormitorios no tienen. El desayuno es muy limitado y simple. Los gatos se suben a las mesas y andan por toda la cosina dejando pelos, los perros pasan viendo a rededor de la mesa. Creo que es un asco.

The staff here genuinely went above and beyond to make the stay as easy and enjoyable as they possibly could.
It's located just far enough away from the main drag to walk to within 3 mins but far enough away to have it be quiet in the evening.
The daily breakfast is included in the room rate and was excellent. Should I find myself in Samara again, I'm staying here.

Really good value for your money. The rooms are perfectly clean, the staff is friendly and the location is perfect - super close to the beach and great restaurants, but very quiet compared to the "centre" of the city where the loud music is.

The economic room I stayed in was inexpensive. The shared bathroom was clean, when U figure out how the shower works you even get warm water, which is not so Common in that price range (I don't really need this, but nice extra). The rooms are with AC, which I also wouldn't need but some luxury now and then can be comforting, depending on Ur situation.

The breakfast which is included is good, you can choose between two Vegetarian options, awesome. (Gallo Pinto or yoghurt with fruits etc)

Will come back.

I'm a solo traveler and stayed here for 3 night, I had a fantastic experience! It was reasonably priced and only a couple minutes walk to the beach. The location is perfect if you want to explore Samara and surrounding areas. They have options of both private rooms with a private bathroom or shared bathroom. The pool is small but refreshing. Much nicer than a hostel.
Breakfast is included and it was delicious and filling. The staff was kind and helpful. Special shoutout to Keidy who recommended some beautiful beaches in the area that were totally worth the crazy drive. Overall I would definitely come back!

This is truly a special place! The atmosphere of the rancho breakfast area pavilion is welcoming and warm-hearted, and the staff are genuinely friendly and laid-back while always making sure I have everything I need. And you couldn't ask for a better location, just a two-minute walk to the beach and on a quiet, safe street, tucked away from the nightlife.

Un lugar con excelente atención 24/7. Me brindaron un gran servicio y el lugar muy agradable tranquilo y sereno apenas para pasar la noche. Confortable y muy sereno. Les agradezco mucho la estadía fue breve pero muy agradecido por su hospitalidad.

Ok for the price, staff is very friendly and attentive. There is free coffee and water but overall the room needed some deep cleaning especially the Air conditioning filters that were black and dusty. Also, as a suggestion, a nightstand light would have been nice, the big one on the ceiling was just too bright in the evening and please change the bath mats as they are just gross. Other than that it was nice!

We LOVED Pension Playa Samara. LOCATION IS PERFECT. This was not top of the range facilities or rooms. Not luxury or deluxe feeling. Instead you get great breakfast and cheap rooms, but mostly a lovely FAMILY feel, where the staff eat breakfast together as a meal after they've served the guests, you always feel like you are at home and there is just a constant FRIENDLY vibe. The pool is shaded all day (believe me, you WANT THIS). The price is pretty much unbeatable which makes it the best value for money in Samara. Thanks for such a wonderful experience. If we come back to Samara, we are staying here again.
