Pros:

The hotel itself was fine, but my experience with the payment and customer service has been terrible.

I booked through Booking.com and was charged about $200. However, when I arrived at the hotel, they asked for my credit card and later I discovered that they had charged me another $200. In total, I ended up paying around $400 for just one night.

I have contacted the hotel several times by phone and through Booking.com. I provided my name and all my reservation details, but they have ignored my requests and have not refunded the duplicate charge.

This is completely unacceptable. I live in Spain, but if this is not resolved, I will return and deal with it in person.

Be very careful if you stay at this hotel. Check your credit card carefully after your stay to make sure you are not charged twice—once through Booking.com and again directly by the hotel.

Great for traveling families
Pros:

It’s very clean and well laid out, the gym is really nice and has lots of equipment, the pool was enjoyed by my kids. Breakfast was great, the rooms were huge and felt perfect for a family of 5 staying here 3 nights. I would definitely stay here again.

Cons:

They charge $10/night for parking which seems ridiculous cause it’s not like they have a closed parking lot or valet and they don’t take your vehicle license plate info. The breakfast area needs a carafe of water out.
