I had 1 problem that was so unprofessional they do work in rooms and don’t notify the customers and early in the morning which was around 8:15am so I had to complain and since they didn’t get back to me I had to get dressed and go downstairs to talk to the receptionist and ask to speak to a supervisor which I did and she took care of the problem.

View was nice , staff is great, location is good. Not worth the price when you arrive hot , sweaty and the fridge is busted. We had to wait until maintenance arrived to change it out. Which took time out if our day for sight seeing. Once maintenance left we were ready to walk around town. We put our passports , cash, chargers in safe box but it did not work. Had to call and wait for maintenance again. Plus safe box size does not fit an average size Mac computer. Finally we just walked out and got a refund. Would not recommend this place. To many items broken for the price. Staff was always very helpful

Great staff always available for you, the pool is amazing my daughter love it. My only problem was the air conditioner, you need to call the reception to set the temperature of the room, you don't have the control and during my stay the air conditioner turned off at night.

It is adequate for a business or brief stay. Not a vacation type hotel. It is confortable, but not luxurious.
