Hotel Riu Emerald Bay - All Inclusive
The room was so musty smelling. 2nd floor absolutely no view. Food at best was tolerable but nothing to brag about. Bathroom needs a renovation. Bathtub very slippery. Almost fell several times.

The grounds are beautiful and well kept, but the rooms have not been. The food was excellent. The buffet was just a buffet, but that's not my preferred choice of food. ...
