The room was clean staff was friendly and was able to accommodate English speakers. The AC was great pool was refreshing. The only complaint I had was a weak wifi connection in the rooms. I would suggest repeater or a second wifi in the back of the building. The breakfast area has been modernized and was a nice change since last visit. The food is always fresh and tasty and has many options for varied pallettes.
