The property felt a little dated and in need of a refresh. The staff were wonderful and accommodating. The lack of AC in the common areas and no elevator was a big negative for us.

Went for wedding with my family of 4 (2 adults and a 17yr and 18yr) ROOM: 11 is located on the second floor (no elevators) the room was so spacious it was prefect two separate rooms/bathrooms and even a small table. One thing is that the bed was KINDA OF hard and the sheets where thin and not big enough for two maybe if they would update to some luxury puffy comforter vs quilt would have made a big differents or even a pillow top. NO MINI refrigerator which sucked since we has no ice and now now where to store our drinks (ice was located 3 floors up which it was 68steps) . The A/C was really cold which we loved. Front desk all were amazing 👏 especially Yetiva best communication before the trip I was able to ask her so many questions about transportation and restaurants, via WHATSAPP. ***THIS HOTEL IS NOT FOR PPL WITH MOBILITY ISSUES***

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Wonderful hotel! The staff were lovely. Our only complaint was it was a little loud in the room from all of the street noise (honking mostly), but there’s not much they can do about that—that’s the trade off for having a convenient location. We also recommend that if you are going to a foreign country that YOU LEARN THE LANGUAGE. At least the basics. This area only recently became a popular tourist destination for Americans, so there has not been a reason for the people here to learn English, but it’s not their job to. Very few people here speak English, so don’t come here expecting Cancun because you won’t find it. It is a beautiful country with a beautiful language that is worth exploring if you put in the time to prepare.

Jaime

Liked: Staff & service
Disliked: Amenities
The bed was very hard, especially if you are a side sleeper, the rooms from the first floors lack of some noise suppression as you can even hear the transactions of the street vendors on the other side of the wall, the stairs to the pool and breakfast area are very narrow, the bedroom door lacks of light, which makes it difficult to use the key at night, the breakfast options are just ok, but the ladies of it, makes it a pleasant time. The hotel also lacks a generator, the city lost power twice on two consecutive days and we had to stay in complete darkness for like 2 or 3 hours which with the city temperatures was not pleasant, there’s only tv’s in the rooms and they are apps driven, so no local channels, the room’s phone is for decoration purposes, we couldn’t contact the front desk nor my friends on other rooms unless I used my personal device, but Tatiana at the reception is great, so thanks to those Ladies I mentioned my stay was good.
