The use of Ai has made this property look amazing online. In person the property was the exact opposite. Our room smelled like smoke, there was only two working lamps, the front door did not shut properly nor feel safe, and the shower head was filled with mold. We left within the first hour of checking in due to these reasons. I would spend the extra money to stay near by at the Holiday Inn or any other hotel. I will say thank you to the staff that were helpful in ensuring we got a refund for our stay.

Three rooms. Requested 1st floor rooms. Room 1 room had toilet and shower faucets running water. Room was changed to 2nd floor. Room was clean, but in the morning we found a dead roach. Room 2: Smelled very bad, bed was made but dirty, small lizard and dead insects. Front desk admitted room was not used in a while Room was changed to 2 floor, was clean. Room 3: Clean but tv didn't work. This hotel has wonderful public areas but urgently needs a rehab. The reception and rooms also need an update. Staff were very helpful.

The hotel is not the least similar to photos on the internet, no illusion. The entrance impresses, real-life dogs, but when you're inside it's something else, some depressing storage or laundry places, the fountain in the dirty entrance in the background, the pool looked dirty water, we never used it, the sidewalks to get to the dirty rooms, they need pressure washing machine. The doors of the horrible rooms use locks with keys and make noise when opening and closing, the good room, but the shower nasty, left us a day without hot water and the TV with an antenna that barely can see the channels, only two towels per room, no small towels and much less the floor when leaving the bathtub, my room a dead cockroach in the closet, I can only tell you that it is super quiet. I think you should better check hotels on your platform.

When we arrived at the hotel we realized that the photos are nothing like those that were taken for the promotion, the check-in was quick, we went to the room that was assigned to us and when we entered it smelled musty and the bathroom had cockroaches, we went to the front desk we let him know and they assigned us another room the same had the bottom of the door an opening of two fingers of space we had to ask for a towel to put it in the space so that no animals would not enter, there were many mosquitoes the interior of the room the pool was dirty, the drain of the bathtub and the sink did not go down well the water took a long time to go down, they did not offer breakfast or snacks, the room did not even have a refrigerator, the last day we found a fairly large cockroach in the bathroom, the hygiene of the room was not the best either.

Solace after storm

Simple and quiet. Staff was helpful in finding local places to eat. Relaxed by the pool with wild parrots and magpies singing nearby. An lone outpost surrounded by a hurricane destroyed waterpark. Locals play pickleball and volleyball there, so it has its own noncommercial community life. Truly restful and quiet.

I liked it as it was secluded. Rooms need a lot of work. Pool and outside grounds well maintained and 3 to 11 staff was excellent. No water on my last night. Place needs some TLC and it would be wonderful. It sits in the middle of an abandoned water park.

The personnel was great, The Breakfast was great. The hotel has no signage from the road, it was hard to find. There’s no elevator. The room was hot, the AC was not working properly in some of the rooms as we learned when they were trying to find a room for me. No safety at all. The rooms still have a regular key to open. It is so old and dilapidated. I did not feel safe to go in the pool. The Ice machine was out of service. There’s no backup generator in the property; it is mandatory in any hotel in PR.
