The hotel felt more like a basic city hotel rather than a resort, with issues like stained carpets and old furniture. While the staff was young and friendly, the service was inconsistent and sometimes felt understaffed. The location is rather isolated, requiring a taxi for dining and shopping options. Overall, it offers decent value, but it could certainly improve.

The hotel had a few highlights, such as a lovely pool area and helpful staff, particularly at the front desk. However, the overall atmosphere was lacking, and I found the dining options to be average at best, with some inconsistencies in service. The location isn't very convenient since there are no shops or restaurants nearby, which might require a taxi for dining out.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. While the pool area was lovely, the overall atmosphere felt lacking. The rooms and service were just average, with a few exceptions, notably a helpful front desk staff member. The location is somewhat isolated, requiring a short cab ride to reach any shopping or dining options. Overall, it's not a bad choice for the price, but there are definitely areas needing improvement.

I found the hotel to be a bit underwhelming. The atmosphere felt more like a budget option rather than a resort. While the room was decent, the rest of the experience was quite average at best. The staff, particularly at the front desk, were nice but generally inexperienced. Additionally, there wasn't much nearby, so you felt isolated. On the positive side, the indoor pool was a nice touch, but overall it could use some improvements to truly represent a resort.
Rooms

The room was reasonably clean but nothing special, and certainly didn't feel luxurious.

The service was standard, with minimal staff available, especially during weekends. The front desk staff were helpful but the restaurant service lagged.

I had a pleasant stay at this hotel, where the staff was really helpful, especially Santiago at the front desk. The atmosphere was a bit lacking, though, and I found the overall service and dining experience to be average at best. However, the lovely pool area made up for some of the downsides. It's a nice spot, especially for the price, but it's important to note it isn't a five-star resort.
