Possibility of bedbugs
When we arrived, our room was fairly disorganized, and the sheets indicated bloodstain. When I lifted up the sheet, I saw something that looked like a bedbug. Staff members were in the room with me and saw the same thing. However, they denied the possibility of bedbugs. When I complained, they said I could leave the hotel and go find another room, but that was rather impossible. There was no compensation for the discomfort and stress that we went through. The mattress was also quite firm. I did receive bites that had the possibility of being bedbugs. I have pictures of these bites. However, I was walking in the woods and so I cannot conclude this. The view is magnificent, the pool, terrific, but I was surprised at the lack of courtesy and compensation, for the discomfort that we went through. When we left the staff member said that the room at that point would be exterminated. This certainly increases the verification of the concern.

Great Pool area!
Had no clue that in order to reach the front desk to check in was up a pretty steep incline. Also after reaching the front we had to go up many steps. No bell man, no golf cart and parking up near the top was limited to about 6 cars with parking below the incline of the hill. It was not easy hauling your suitcases up the incline. Should be disclosed because many people complained. Some of the duplex units had many stairs to go up or down. There is an elevator for the main tower but still gotta climb the hill to get there. Waiters were not that friendly as they were in La Fortuna.
