Mar Del Norte

We stayed here the night before a flight back home. The lodging is in a residential area that's right off a busy highway and near restaurants and other businesses. It appeared that there were a couple of similar compounds on the block. This min-unit compound did not have a #1 on it which was confusing. Liked that it was walkable to a nearby beach, eateries, and convenience stores for last-minute essentials. It's also not far from the airport. Disliked that the property manager was insistent on getting a pic of IDs for individuals who would be staying there. This request should be in their ads rather than a last-minute request before getting the code to check-in. As a traveler, it's unsettling to get this information without explanation. The room was large enough for two, but appeared to be unfinished. The wall was buckling and appeared just re-painted. The room smelled and looked clean, but items contained indescribable spills and spots on the lamp and bed. See attached pics. The guests next door kept slamming their door which was disturbing given we had an early flight. We tried to ask them to be quiet and they showed us that the door wasn't latching which didn't provide security for them. Consider your preferences in the event no other lodging is available. It's basic, but a problematic place to stay that I would suggest you set your expectations before booking.
