Nice hotel
Clean and modern. Largest free breakfast we had experienced at a hotel. Everyone was very friendly. Only issue was that in our deluxe room (2 Queen and 1 pullout) was that the 2 queens were pushed up to each other with no space to separate them. It was strange and not expected. Luckily it was just our 4 person family-otherwise that would have been awkward.

I don’t usually submit a negative review but I was a little shocked at the response I received based on my checkout experience. Having been to multiple Riu resorts I have always been highly impressed and satisfied with my experiences. However after finding nail clippings of some kind in the bathroom wash cloth holder I was not impressed. This hotel offered a breakfast with the stay and it was very good. However do not try to take a coffee with you to your room because you will be stopped and escorted back as I was, and there are no takeout cups- there was only one coffee cup in our room. At checkout I told the counter staff about the nail clippings, I got a “thanks”, and immediately ignored. I would have at least appreciated a sorry even Come on Riu, that’s not your standards.

The Riu Plaza was great. My only complaint was that the beds were a bit too high but besides that the location, the hotel itself, the breakfast, were all amazing.

BED BUGS! DO NOT STAY!!!
Checked in on 12/15 with a checkout date of 12/18. Late in the evening on 12/17, after getting up to use the restroom, I was getting back into bed when I noticed something moving. I turned on the light to discover a bed bug. I immediately called the front desk, and they moved us to a new room. They sent someone up to check for bugs, but I had to go down to get my new keys. We were moved from the 22nd floor to the 4th floor, which was a downgrade, but I wasn't too concerned since it was our last night. They said no manager was available that late in the evening. The next morning, I called down and was told that a manager who could handle the situation wouldn't be available until 3 PM. When I called after 3 PM, I was initially told the manager was with a customer and asked if I would hold, to which I agreed. A few minutes later, the person returned to the phone and said the manager would not talk to me because there was nothing they could do, and that I had to email complaints@riu.com, which I had already done after it was mentioned by someone I had spoken with earlier. Today, 12/19, I received an email acknowledging my message, stating that I would hear back within 15-20 business days.
