Absolute nightmare, the room I stayed in was beyond run down. The bath had painted over mold all over the ceiling. The mattress was the equivalent of sleeping on a carpet on the floor. Staff wouldnt let you bring in guests, which is absurd. Expedia this isn’t over.
A good value for the price. The staff was friendly and welcoming, and the facility was clean and well maintained. The hotel’s beachfront location is a major plus, and it’s conveniently situated just a short walk from shopping and restaurants. The food was average but acceptable. One thing to note is that our rooms did not include a microwave or mini refrigerator, which may be important for some travelers.
Rooms could use an upgrade, however the room was very clean and daily serviced! The best thing about this hotel is its prime location! It is in the heart of la zona romantica and every place we wanted to go within a 15 min walking distance. Highly recommend staying here!
Spent 6 nights in 4 rooms with family for a wedding and had a great trip! Good clean rooms in a great location, staff was great to accommodate our needs. Pro tip, service and access is easier with the all inclusive option.
