Hotel or Apts?
I've stayed in 3 apts in the Bay
(what was) the Bahia , now Ocean Beach - location wise it was excellent - walking distance to the start of San An but still a quieter area
I'm guessing that its more expensive now its under the OBC banner
Xaloc, futher along the bay but still walking distance to the "action" - basic place but quiet and nice big pool
Sol Post - has a hotel & apts but its right at the end of the bay and its a killer walk to the centre of San An
both those were cheap but decent accomodation
