Caribbean Coast
A large, classically tropical wooden building with mosquito-screened corridors, the century-old Hotel del Norte is in a class by itself. Its weathered and warped frame is redolent of history, and the floorboards go off at crazy angles. Pick a room carefully – some are little more than a wooden box; others have great ocean views and catch good breezes.
Rooms with air-conditioning are in the newer, less atmospheric building, but are still an excellent deal. There's a swimming pool beside the sea.
