Verified review

6/10 Good

This hotel serves its main purpose, the room was clean and the staff was decent but I think it is in need of a remodel, the difference in price compared to better hotels in the area isn’t that much so the value proposition for this hotel just isn’t there, the practice of handing you the remote control when you check in and the expectation that you bring it back at check out is something you see at lower tiers of hotels in Mexico not a resort style place as they advertise themselves

Staff were friendly and the room was clean. Pool and hot tub were nice to use every day for the week that wee were there. The AC was very noisy in our room and that turned out to be ok as it blocked out the noise from the street at night. The food in the the restaurant was good albeit a bit on the pricey side. Location was great. A Hort walk to the Gold Zone and right on the green line to get to old town in 10-15 minutes

10/10 Exceptional

We loved the view, we had the ocean view and it lovely. We loved how it was the middle of the area and we would walk or ride a pulmonía to everything. One thing I didn’t like was that we couldn’t ask for extra towels if we needed, we had to replace the ones we had with new ones. Other than that we loved our stay.
