The room was excellent. The staff was nice. No security so in the middle of the night I was waken by some women smoking pot in the hall and talking very loud. Had to fight with them for them to leave. No one to call. Also, coffee machine was broken. Besides that everything was good.
Room was spacious. Check in and out was smooth and easy. Hotel was refurbished and new-looking.

We booked all inclusive which was a limited menu byt dinner we had were nice. Breakfasts was cooked to order. Not best options. Restaurant was cold and not very nice to sit.
Lady who worked in the morning was nice. Room was clean but simple. Location was out of the way. Much better option in the area.
The room had poor ventilation and was quite stuffy and hot during my stay. Without proper airflow or air conditioning, it became uncomfortable, especially in the evenings.
Staff was nice and accommodating, the room and bathroom were clean. Beds were good and the place was quiet. Wifi was good and the tv in the room allowed skycasting so we could watch netflix from our phone. Overall basic accomodation that meets all your needs for a very nice price.
