I initially really liked the hotel - beautiful setting, very quiet, very comfortable beds, good breakfast buffet, large pool. However, for me, that was overshadowed by my check-out experience. First, the girl at the reception tried to charge me DOUBLE my confirmed Expedia rate. After discussion, she went down twice with the amount, but still tried to charge me USD 50 over what was agreed. Even when she finally gave in and "allowed" me to pay the confirmed amount, she still tried to hide the overcharge in the Dollar / Peso conversion. I don't know if it was simple incompetence or a willful attempt to overcharge, but I don't really care. Through it all, she made me feel that it was all my fault. Very frustrating, and three days of relaxation were for nothing. Wouldn't go there again, Valdivia has other nice hotels.
