The worst was not be able to watch tv because its necesary the technician and to ask for him in his work time. I like to Watch the News or a movie before to sleep. The only good thing is that is cheap the room . But it is necessary the depósit of 100 dollars. For that seems to me it is necessary to report to the office if something you find irregular when you enter in your room.

La persona de housekeeper nos abrió la puerta el primer día que nos quedamos, ella entró hasta casi la cama de nosotros, solo dijo que lo sentía y que si hasta cuando nos quedábamos, cuando teníamos las 2 noches pagadas desde que hicimos el check in, a los 30 minutos llegó otra persona a tocar la puerta casi tumbándola porque tampoco sabia que nos quedábamos mas tiempo, fue una falta de respeto y privacidad enorme, no tienen comunicación entre los empleados.

Rooms are clean, but small. It is a LONG walk from most rooms to the front desk area due to the colossal courtyard (pool is normal-sized). Hot breakfast items run out at some point, so you should get there early, otherwise you'll have to go asking for stuff as I did. No shade in the parking lot, so you can't leave perishables in your car. Massive ants walking around outside the rooms, thankfully they didn't get in.
