El desayuno estubo bueno. Más las habitaciones y el Hotel está viejo, sin remodelar, las piscinas lucían con aguas turbias, donde estabs la ducha alrededor de la piscina se formaba una especie de agua empozada con mal olor y criadero de dengue posiblemente. Las habitaciones, algo viejas, los baños tenían costras de suciedad, las perillas oxidadas, espejos oxidados, el chorro de la ducha se salís por todo lado, lo reportamos...pero no funcionó. En fin NUNCA más volvería a este hotel, relación precio...muy caro para ser tan feo.

The front desk employees were very kind and accomodating. The manager was very helpfull on a request and handled it very proffessionally Housecleaning did an excellent job cleaning my room. The only thing thst needed attention was the water pressure in the shower. It was extremely weak and should be looked at. Overall I had a great experience

There is construction work going on on site and next door. No one told us about it before. The next door property will not be completed for the next 12 to 24 mo. Be aware. I would not go there again.

Great service, but terrible condition
They construction in the hotel around the hotel by the hotel, the entire five days we were there. The shower stall in our room was like a sprinkler and it would fill with water so we were all bathing in each other’s bathwater. The beds were very hard and uncomfortable. I’ve never been in jail, but I’m sure that’s what the bed feels like in jail.

6/10 Good

The location is perfect. The food is good. Breakfast is included. The internet always works and even reaches out to the beach. Plenty of towels in the rooms. The biggest fail is that coolers and personal speakers are prohibited around the pool. I would not stay here again solely for this reason. The seating at the restaurant should be managed better. I traveled in a group of 10 family members, 6 adults and 4 kids. One or two people would be allowed to occupy a table for 6 instead of a table for 2 or 4 and the employees wouldn't ask them to move to a smaller table. But then we were asked to move from the two tables of 4 that we pulled chairs up to because it left a table of 2 without chairs and we were told that they were executive tables as if we didn't belong there.

Great location. Looks nice. Needs better curtains . The current curtains are see through and since my unit was a corner unit, people walking by the room could see straight in. To bad of the loud construction next to it but once that is done it should be ok.

I will say that the location was in the middle of everything. Unfortunately, location was the only positive. We actually left about 10 minutes after checking in. The room was gross. Just not clean. The sink was broken, the room was outdated, and bathroom was grimey. We stayed just long enough to hook up to the wi-fi so we could find another hotel and then we left. I will not recommend this hotel at all.
