The property was in a great location but I think next time I will stay somewhere else.
Pros:

Property was clean and a great location.

Cons:

Advertisement listed a pool but the pool was more like a children’s pool. Really not for swimming and that is the reason we booked with the hotel. Woke up very early to the sound of garbage trucks retrieving trash outside my room. Hotel staff could be more personable at front desk.

An average stay at Marea Sol
Pros:

The location was excellent and the front office staff were really friendly and helpful.

Cons:

I didn't appreciate having to pay for parking, this should have been a benefit of choosing the hotel. The room was not regularly cleaned without us requesting it. The beds were tiny for people sharing.
