The Staff very nice, very helpful, in the room the sink water was running very slow and no water pressure coming from the faucet while taking shower. No view to the ocean from my room because you reserved as a lateral room, not central room.

El desayuno malo, muy pocas opciones para ser buffet . En el registro muy tardado como 40 min tuvimos que hacer fila por que tenian a un grupo grande en alguna conferencia y eso hizo muy tardado el proceso, creo que deberian separar las lineas cuando tengan ese tipo de grupos para no afectar a los otros huespedes. Y ni agua ofrecen miestras esperamos

Needs lots of care.

First room flooded so we got moved to anothwr room which had no fridge nor microwave. Lightning in barhroom/ sink is very minimal and things are old outdated and stained. There are no icemachines so if you need ice you have to to to thw restaurant and get it from a cooler. A day before our check out someone walked into our room without knocking or announcing and I was half dressed. I didn't feel safe anymore so my daughtwr and I decided to leave one day before our original plans. I paid 800 dollars for 3 nights! Mind blowing. However, staff was very friendly and helpful especially front desk and housekeeping.

Avía rentado un cuarto “Luxuary” con balcón y en cuanto llegue me dieron un cuartó básico cualquiera. Les desmonté el que avía rentado y le echaron la culpa al Expedia que era equivocación de la compañía. Y luego la manejadora me quiera cobrar extra por el cuarto que ya avía pagado y que cambiaron la pajina en frente de mi para que no me hacían el válido el reclamo. Tome captura de pantalla y ayun así no me lo hicieron válido. El aire acondicionado del cuarto no sirva para nada. Fui a recepción si lo podían arreglar y no me ayudaron. Me quedé encerrada en el elevador porque no funcionaba y peor del caso no tenía aire. el hotel estaba sucio y oía feo! El buffet ni se diga caro y malo..Persimo servicio.
