This hotel has so much to improve
This may be a different review, but I wanted to be simple and straightforward so it can be helpful to future guests so they can be prepared for what to expect. CONS: - Besides what I had paid online, I was also charged $50,000 Colombian pesos during the check-in for a supposed "insurance of the hotel." - The reception staff was nothing nice and had a terrible attitude. Bad customer service. - The WiFi range did not reach the room. We had to sit in the lobby or on the couches outside of the room to use the internet. - There was no place and nothing to hang our cloths. PROS: - The cafeteria staff are more friendly and nicer than the receptionist. - The daily breakfast was delicious. - The hotel is within short walking distance from the beach, stores, pharmacies, restaurants, banks and more. - The housekeepers were such great people and they used to leave the room impeccable. I give them 10 out of 10. I hope the management team receive these feedback well and hopefully they can improve them.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The bathroom was near the hallway, it had an open window, so all the noise from the pool and bar area came in the room. The breakfast buffet was absolutely horrible, powdered eggs, it was like prison food. I got a stomach virus from the food or the coffee, they might have used tap water for the coffee.

things i did not like, there was no fridge in the room, no phone in rooms to call lobby in case of emergency, no wi fi in rooms, towels not ready only after 10AM, only one elevator (crowded most of the time). To be honest i would not come back to this hotel. :(

City center Hotel
Very basic. It is very far from ALL INCLUSIVE. No basic amaneties provider like shampoo, only bar soap. No hair dryer, not even upon request. Meals were included but did not eat a single lunch or dinner. Food outside is better and cheap.

Hotel is very dated. A/C did not cool the room at all. The bathroom had very bad fumes and all of the pluming was in immediate need of replacement. No room phone. TV signal was very bad. The receptionists were not nice or informative at all. They did not seem to enjoy their job at the Hotel.

Expensive for what you got
While the room was clean, the safe did not work and the balcony door had no lock. The shower had a lot of pressure, but it was in a pounding stream with no hot water. The password for the internet was incorrect, but the network was hardly ever visible. On our last night we were told by reception we were required to pay for accident insurance that was not covered by our rate. They were unable to provide any documentation showing it was required. Overall we were not impressed with the hotel, given the rate we paid.

Hotel Antigo e Mofado.
Pessoal muito amável e solícito, mas a estrutura do hotel é horrível. Nos cederam um dos melhores quartos, mofado, sem frigobar, cofre, sem wi-fi nos quartos, chuveiro sem agua quente e banheiro caindo aos pedaços. Abandonamos o hotel e o trocamos após a primeira noite. Fotos totalmente enganadoras. Café da manhã horroroso. Localização muito boa, mas não compensa.

Nos tocó una habitación que daba al exterior de hotel y el ruido de los visitantes se escuchaba todas las noches, pedí ayuda en cambiar la habitación pero no fue atendida, no hubo jabón en la ducha, la alimentación los días sábado, domingo y lunes fue malísima.

Excelente estadía, todo muy limpio, personal atento a cada cosa que necesitaba! Muy buena ubicación a 2 min de la playa y del centro. Lo único, es que no tenía agua caliente, pero sale tibia por el calor! En recepción tienen un stand para tomar ahí mismo los tour. Recomendado 100%!

Bom é bem localizado.
Um bom hotel, bem localizado. Tem um restaurante que oferece um buffet com preço fixo que oferece almoço e jantar, uma opção para economizar, variedade de comidas, sobremesas e sucos. O café da manhã já incluso na diária, com uma boa variedade e vista para o mar. Esse hotel só tem internet na área da piscina. Eu recomendo.

Hotel bom
O hotel portofino é um bom hotel. Peca apenas na disponibilização do wi fi, que é horrível. Mas este, creio eu, é um problema de toda ilha. Eles deveriam maneirar no volume do som no bar da piscina do segundo andar. No quinto eu ouvia, imagina quem estava hospedado no segundo. No geral, eu e minha esposa voltaríamos ao hotel.

Hotel bem localizado, quarto amplo, wifi limitado
A estadia foi boa. Ficamos surpresos com a cobrança de taxa de seguro, que foi colocada como obrigatória (5mil pesos por dia por hospede). Apesar disso, quarto agradável, atenciosos no atendimento. Bom café da manhã. Seria importante internet nos quartos, visto que só tem na área da piscina. Fácil compra de pacotes turísticos.
