Our servers Fernanda and Louis were very friendly and engaging. Service was excellent and we appreciate that. Also the cleanliness of the entire complex was impressive.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Property was just ok. Drinks are weak and room bar not stocked with anything other than a few beers and water. Would not provide anything else. Electrical connections are minimal; had issues charging devices. Some restaurants were closed but the biggest issue was elevator availability. Had to wait 15 min during peak hours. Overall, the hotel ocean view was fantastic and the price for value was really good. If you want a nice hotel (nothing too fancy), then this is a good option.
