Kofferaufbewahrung für Gäste als CASH COW des Hotels? 5 DOLLAR pro Stück und Tag... kaum zu glauben.
Pros:

Lage und Infrastruktur des Hotels insgesamt.

Cons:

Es ist INAKEZEPTABEL, dass das Hotel pro Tag, pro Koffer 5 Dollar verlangt, obwohl ich nach zwei Tagen eine Reservation für drei weitere Tage hatte. Demnach habe ich meine Reservation der Folgetage STORNIERT und werde die RIU Gruppe meiden!

Das Schwimmbad ist für die Grösse des Hotels VIEL ZU KLEIN!

Das Restaurant, wo auch das Frühstück serviert wird, ähnelt eher einer Bundeswehr-Kantine als einem Restaurant.
