Pros:

El lugar es muy top es muy bonito, el servicio, limpieza, cercanía a la playa, aseo. Todo es espectacular.

Cons:

El ruido del sistema de aire acondicionado. El desayuno es normal en términos de que es muy similar a cualquier otro hotel incluso de categorías inferiores. Quizá hace falta algo en el desayuno que genere el efecto wow diferenciador.

Decepcionante.
Pros:

La piscina está muy bien. La amabilidad del personal.

Cons:

Nos dieron la habitación 406 con mucha humedad y mi hijo de 2 años hizo broncoespasmo pulmonar, tuve que llevarlo urgentemente una noche a una clínica. Al día siguiente nos cambiaron de habitación, lo cuál demuestra que desde un principio nos pudieron asignar esa habitación y evitar el sufrimiento de mi hijo y la angustia de su familia. Deben mejorar urgentemente la limpieza de las habitaciones.
