listen to bigbird on this one. 35 sounds very cheap even for boca chica. Candil and Costalunga both have apts with living area in the mid-40's. Both have two bedroom "suites" for about 70. (They also have very small non-ac studios for around 35).

My concern is that you might be booking a studio and will have to upgrade (if available) when you get there.

I would CALL them and find out what you are getting! Calling can be a challenge tho if you dont speak spanish and the front desk doesnt speak english (you havent told us if you speak spanish). My spanish is not great...but i can at least call and make sure that i get a quiet room (important at candil these days with that damn construction).

A female traveler friend of mine also recommends Calypso...right around the corner from candil and costalunga...perhaps another option.

CALL!!!! if you dont speak the language then invite a friend over who does and have them call!

Oh..and BTW..i'd rather spend and extra 10 usd a night to stay somewhere that i know is nice, good service and secure...its a vacation right? dont want to trim the budget too much where you dont have fun.
