¡Podría ser mucho mejor!
Pros:

La ubicación.

Cons:

Muy poco personal, la Recepción tiene que ocuparse de todo (recepción, restaurante, bellboy, doorman, etc.) y esto hace que no sea eficiente.
El restaurante lo mismo, tiene un chef que además tiene que atender las mesas. Tardan más de 1 hora en preparar una hamburguesa.
En mi habitación no funcionaba la caja fuerte, y no había personal de mantenimiento que la solucione.

Amazing stay and great experience
Pros:

I honestly loved everything about this place. The environment was clean, comfortable, and welcoming, and the overall experience was amazing from start to finish. The staff was great, and the property truly met my expectations. The food offered here was absolutely amazing — from breakfast to dinner, everything was delicious and well prepared. I would definitely visit again.

Cons:

The only small issue we experienced was with the TV connecting to streaming platforms like Netflix. The TV itself was working, but the streaming portal was not connecting properly. Also, it would be nice if the property could consider offering alcoholic beverages in future — just a small suggestion to make the experience even better.
