We went for 3 nights with 2 teenagers to be close to the delgroso park. The only problem I had was that they dont have enough handicap accessible rooms. The room was large enough for my wheelchair and i could get into the bathroom but they didn't have any shower chairs and reaching the sink but i had help from the hubby but just keep it in mind. Having said that, I would stay again.
