Pros:

El desayuno, bien. La comida tiene buen sabor, las porciones son buenas y variedad de platillos , se desayuna muy a gusto por la locación.

Cons:

Mantenimiento sobre todo en mobiliario e instalaciones, camastros en la alberca, la tina de la habitación, detalles para lograr la excelencia.

Nice hotel but not sure I would come back
Pros:

The staff was friendly and the hotel quite pretty but a little dilapidated. The staff was friendly and helpful and the breakfast was good.

Cons:

We coudn'lt use the terrace as we were told it is 'out of service'. The rooms were nice but could be cleaner. I had to ask for the floors to be wipes as they were black when i wiped something from the floor. The staff was friendly and helpful and the breakfast was good. It was a nice experience but felt a bit scruffy....

NO VOLVERIA A OCUPAR ESE HOTEL
Pros:

EN ESTA OCASIÓN LA UBICACIÓN, YA HABIA ESTADO ANTERIORMENTE EN EL HOTEL, PERO NO FUE LA MISMA EXPERIENCIA.

Cons:

VI AL HOTEL EN MALAS CONDICIONES, QUIZÁS UN POCO ABANDONADO, EL ÁEREA DE LA ALBERCA
ROTOS LAS TABLAS DE MADERA E INCLUSO ESTUVE A PUNTO DE TENER UN ACCIDENTE PORQUE EL
CALZADO SE ME FUE DE UN LADO, LAS LUCES DE LAS HABITACIONES ALGUNAS NO FUNCIONABAN Y EL AGUA
DE LA ALBERCA HELADA.

Cons:

Staff forgot to provide us with a boxed lunch as promised because we had a very early tour. We can understand the error, however we never received a proper apology. For how much we paid, we think we deserve better.

Un bel hôtel au style soigné, mais une expérience gâchée par un prix excessif et une grosse mésaventure avec le stationn
Pros:

Un hôtel au design élégant, mais qui ne tient pas toutes ses promesses.

• Le petit-déjeuner est vraiment excellent : café, jus ou bol de fruits, chocolatine chaude, et un plat au choix inclus. Le service est chaleureux et attentif
• Climatisation efficace, très appréciable avec la chaleur locale

En bref : un hôtel charmant, mais qui repose trop sur son image. Le manque de transparence et le mauvais rapport qualité/prix gâchent malheureusement l’expérience.

Cons:

• Trop cher pour ce que c’est. Le tarif est clairement excessif par rapport aux prestations réelles
• Pas de parking malgré ce qui est annoncé. Attention : en vous garant dans la rue, vous risquez une amende ou des ennuis avec la police. Nous avons dû aller récupérer notre plaque d’immatriculation au poste de police le jour du départ ! Une expérience stressante et inacceptable pour un hôtel de ce standing

Beautiful, relaxing gem
Pros:

We loved this hotel - it’s charmingly and uniquely decorated, the room was beautiful (it’s also one of only a handful of hotels locally that seem to offer a twin room w queen beds(, the pool was gorgeous and it’s perfectly located

Cons:

Nothing - couldn’t have been better if we’d designed every detail ourselves.

Considering the price it was disappointing experience
Pros:

The rooms and the decor is very nice, but it was very noisy. We had a suite with pool view and we could hear everything from the reception and they (the staff mainly) were very loud… We also had a 5 course dinner reserved with their restaurant for New Year’s Eve, but it was really bland food and tasteless. During our entire 10days trip to Mexico, this was our worst dinner and it was also extremely expensive for the quality (payed appropriately 150 dollars pp..) the Stay was noisy but the decor and the rooms were really nice, but for the restaurant, we strongly recommend eating somewhere else.

Cons:

Restaurant was a bad experience, and it was very loud (noise from the reception..). Overrated for this price

Lovely
Pros:

We stayed at Rosas & Xocolate for 8 days and enjoyed every moment. The hotel is centrally located on the main paseo which made touring the local squares and other attractions easy to get to both day and night. Our room was comfortable - I slept soundly every night, the service was outstanding - the hotel was always clean and cozy, and the staff were friendly - always willing to help as needed. We took full advantage of all the services offered: spa, dining and their outdoor patios. We had dinner there late our first night after a long day of travel and were pleasantly surprised by the quality and great service. It was five stars above most other hotels' restaurants. Our room came with a complimentary breakfast. It too was delicious and had many choices, allowing us to try many local breakfast foods and beverages each morning.
I would like to give a particular 'shout out' to Crisiant, the sales manager/concierge. He was extremely helpful in advance of our stay helping us arrange a private birding tour, sending us a list of excellent local restaurants within walking distance and rearranging our reservation and transportation from the airport on the fly when our stay was delayed due to an airline issues.
