10/10 Exceptional

Excellent hospitality service

We arrived earlier and Luciana, the Front Desk Manager offered us an early check in and an upgrade to a better room with an excellent view for a couple of dollars. She and the rest of the staff were very friendly and courteous. We have come to this hotel many times and the service has always been over 100%. We will definitely continue coming
Sandra, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This is a great place to stay, but there is no reason they should be charging a resort fee. This is a hotel, not a resort.

Great place for the money
Oscar, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Will not book rooms here again.

Terrible place to stay. One of the rooms had severe moisture damage to the ceiling. AC could not keep up, most of the time it felt like it was blowing warm air. Beds were uncomfortable and I'm not sure they even changed the bedding. They said they did, but the dirt and hair on the sheets said different.
