Luis and Jessica were great they provided everything we needed. The location was also great and there wasn’t many people there during our stay so we had to rooftop pool to ourselves. Would definitely stay there again!

this was a very cost effective property, but there were a number of problems that i had to accept because of the cost: the room safe was broken and could not be fixed. i was advised just to put the "do not disturb" sign on my door. i was not wary of staff, but that the hotel seemed quite open to non guests walking into and through the hotel. so my problem was not solved. i had to ask to have a small refrigerator brought to the room (the cupboard where it should have been was empty) and it took two days to get there. these are small things, so i was like "whatever", but they were problems that the staff couldn't solve easily. the hotel also hosts dance parties on the rooftop numerous nights, so sleep can be a challenge, if you go to bed before 1 or 2AM. most of the staff are very friendly and super helpful, but there are front desk staff who do not seem to care too much. overall, it was alright (i was in Mexico, that was good enough), but I will definitely not return to this property. its better to spend a little more money and get something with less or no problems.

Property was mostly clean but needs a bit of TLC, especially around the pool area. The area itself is nice - plenty of restaurants and things to see nearby. Unfortunately we had a lot of construction noise from next door and some music late into the night, but this is obviously outside the control of the hotel. Breakfast was disappointing as they couldn’t cater for my gluten free wife other than providing a small bowl of fruit. All in all though our stay was decent and we would consider staying again

It was a bitter experience staying in this hotel. No coffee/tea maker or water provided in the first day. Breakfast was poor quality. Only a bread toast with tea and some fruit. No choice. No towels were changed when room cleaning was done. Staff at reception was good and cooperative.

There is ample parking but a bit difficult to access if you are not a good driver. It has minimal space to move around, afraid of hitting other cars by accident.

I gave it 2 stars cause I feel bad for the staff. They are doing what they can. The pictures are not accurate. The “waterfall fountain is not working” the rooms are musty smelling. You get 1 rough towel per person- no hand towels, washcloths. A sheet on the bed. No blankets, nothing extra( I had to buy a blanket for myself from a store) toilet seat flopping around. No restaurant or bar as advertised. Pool cold, hot tub out of order. We were right under the rooftop deck that they have some type of dance club with seriously loud music till 1 am (I asked the desk and they said it was to go till 1 am.) we got stuck in the elevator and they acted like it happens all the time, No big deal to them. Breakfast is 2 pieces of toast a small cup of fruit and 1 cup of coffee or tea which my husband does not drink so we had to buy a bottle of water for him. They don’t open till 830ish so we only got the “breakfast” once which was plenty. It seriously felt like a comedy show and I wasn’t laughing. There were others in our group. 1 had no air at all and they couldn’t move her till the last day. There was another couple we saw locked out of their room for 3 hours and there was no one to fix the door. I guess if you don’t go with a big chain this is what you get but it’s definitely false advertising.

You can tell back in the days it's was a great Hotel but besides the staffing been nice and attentive. I won't actually atay that hotel again. You got be aware the have very limited to none parking and outside the local police are looking to give you a parking ticket (and none give you coins for your bills). One night we didn't have water. And I believe that place is overrated on the price of you compared to any Airbnb nearby.
