Great
it was good service, nice employees, Omar, Rosy& Cristal were great to us. Food was really good. Water heater not that good I only had 1 hot shower during a week period. I highly recommend it because it is one of the best in the area, only a few has pool and it is well located, no stairs to get to the beach and it has a convenience store right in front.

Fotos engañosas y falta de detalles en descripción
Las fotos que se muestran son de las suites, no muestran fotos de las demás habitaciones y son muy pequeñas, el personal no usa cubre bocas ni sigue las medidas de sanidad, el servicio de restaurante es muy malo (aún peor en el turno de la noche). Las habitaciones de baño compartido no cuentan con aire acondicionado, ni caja de seguridad, ambos los mencionan en la descripción. Los pagos con tarjeta ahí tiene un 5% adicional que no menciona en ningún otro lado

Excelentes instalaciones
El lugar esta increíble y súper bien ubicado, desde la playa se pueden ver increíbles atardeceres y la playa es muy buena para nadar. Las instalaciones muy cuidadas, limpias y crean un ambiente de paz. La actitud del personal podría ser mejor, desde las 9 am nos recordaron un par de veces que el check in es a las 12, cosa que ya sabíamos y que hace que te sientas presionado para desocupar la habitación.
