The check in was very easy if you check in online and upload documents. The staff has been wonderful. Even though I practiced Spanish, almost everyone has been fluent in English. The facilities are very nice if you are not a 5 star fanatic, of course there are flaws. Just do not let it distract you from the Big Picture."

Just good, nothing spectacular. Food was alright at best, some stench odor at the buffet and rooms. It was a big group of approximately 15 rooms and almost half could not secure the balcony doors due to broken locks. Towels looked old and therefore I didn’t feel sanitary when drying self after shower.
