Needs improvement & attention to detail

The hotel is comfortable with a great outdoor swimming pool area. A number of things need attention to details: lack of towels for the bathroom floor as the shower is open and floor slippery when wet, replacing shower gels used daily, more meat variety at breakfast, placing note that water in the fridge is part of the bar and water outside is not! It takes a small things to make the stay memorable

First of I wanted to do a late checkout since my flight was at 11pm but was told by the front desk that they had no availability. I was able to go on Expedia and found that there was available rooms. I can not imagine for the life of me why the front desk would have told me they had no available rooms. I ended up booking on Expedia for another day just so I don't have to wait at the airport from checkout time till my flight time. Secondly the sevice was really horrible, I was stopped at the entrance so they could verify I actually had a room in the hotel. I felt discriminated against either because I wasn't white or wearing a suit. I would most def not recommend this hotel and will not be lodging here again.

The property is now old. However, it's still very functional, neat and the staff are friendly. It's good enough for a sound sleep nothing fancy.

Someone spoke English ...thanks to Candice. Excellent ambiance, beautiful art, lots of seating in lobby. Accommodations for just hanging out at the bar , the pool, and beach location, and good food. Excellent location to the supermarket, museums, airport, and the local big market. The staff were all excellent and very polite.

Overpriced and bad service

The hotel had horrible internet. It was so bad that I always had to come downstair to work. It was such a mess. The services was bad, they were unhelpful with anything. An hotel as big as this didn't plan for one foreign socket in their room and were not helpful in anyway. It was an overpriced room.

When checking out the hotel management refused to include in the bill, the money I paid when I booked online, and only issue me receipt for food consumed. Their excuse is that I paid to Expedia not to them, hence, they are not responsible for issuing the receipt. Meanwhile they gave me room on the basis of the same payment, which I found contradictory. I liked the fact that, they picked me up from the airport and took me back. The room was clean and cozy. If you cannot get a room on 4th or 5th floor go for city view, which is cheaper. You enjoy the ocean view only when you are on higher floors, the view from the lower floors is partially blocked by the roof of the restaurant. The food was slightly off for me, it tastes flat and monotonous, and overtly expensive.

Rooms are spacious enough for comfortable working. Staff is friendly and helpful. Internet was iffy as my room was a bit too far from the WiFi router.
