A nice place well located . It is a mexican hotel so expect some oddities in the way things work but it is a safe clean hotel. Breakfast buffet is lacking but this is Mexico not Canada.

This is a tough one. Lots of good things and lots of bad things. That’s why I rated it average. The checkin was good, and the room was good, nothing to complain about. However, regarding the room, it did not have a refrigerator. I knew that before booking this trip. I was hoping for a little better service down at the pool area. After several calls to the receptionist desk, they finally sent Angel. Even though he had only 15 days of experience, he did a good job, taking care of me, and the other guests down at the pool. I ordered a cheeseburger from Angel, and it was delicious, exactly how I ordered it. My room had a balcony, but there was no table or chairs to sit on. The way everything else was going I decided to not even try to fix the problem. I checked out the following morning and the daytime receptionist couldn’t even give me a receipt or call a taxi. He gave me a piece of paper with instructions on it as to how to get a receipt online. He told me to walk down a very steep road, and I would be able to hail a cab from there, terrible. And if I had had a good experience there, I was planning to spend the rest of my three week vacation at that hotel. But sadly it was not to be. According to my very unofficial count, there were about 10 families there. And they did not have enough staff to handle them, even though the hotel has room for hundreds! 👎

The WORST PLACE EVER!!!!
The front desk attendant on arrival was very rude. I asked to speak to the manager and it was even worse, we just wanted a quiet room. Away from the street noise, it was impossible unless we pay more money. For us was a joke because you could tell the property was totally empty which was confirmed the next morning when we had breakfast and we stay waiting for a tour guide for about 2hrs. and nobody else showed up. Anyway, the room was dirty and they had to replace the sheets, no hot water, no telephone, dirty towels that have to be replaced. The bed mattress was like made of rocks. The curtains in the window was full of holes, no air conditioning and it was hot as hell. We have traveled all over the world, and stayed and so many different hotels, but this is by far the lowest of the lowest on every single aspect. I do not recommend this place not even to my enemy (I might have one). Please do you self a favor and there is so many other properties in better areas. In our second night we stay at the Rackaway Hotel and that place was really great.

fantastic pool and pool lounge area! rooms are amazingly large and very nice at least on the 3rd floor and out towards water views. nice balcony to the view beds were great very nice place if you get the good rooms its probably the best deal around for the price/convenience not in an area you'd want to do much in, but an easy daytime walk to the supermarket which saved on cabs they will call a cab for you from the lobby though and its cheap to anywhere

Not recommend it
When we arrived to our double bed room only one bed had pillowcases and the bed that had them were stained with makeup. The bathroom has mold on the walls. Bed was also pretty hard not comfortable. There was a rock in our hotel breakfast. Workers force you to give them tip and will follow you to your room if you dont tip. They cleaned out room and left the balcony door wide open with the curtains open. After staying from 2/10-2/14 they stole my Louis Vuitton sandals that had been in my bag the whole time. I WOULD NEVER STAY HERE AGAIN.
