It was a beautiful place, very comfy, the colors were spectacular and it is in a very good location. The only problem is we were there 3 days and there was no cleaning of our room, we quickly ran out of soap. Also Expedia says that the check in is at 7am, but the check in was actually at 3pm. Luckily, they let us check in before.
