Ok value for money, was better a couple of years ago.
Pros:

The view from the room is nice, the long pool with a view is nice too. The hotel is outside of the party/city center, which is great if you want to have a place to rest.

Cons:

I feel that the breakfast became worse in the last years, there is not a lot of healthy options, and I would expect their arepas to be awesome, but they were dry and bland. Also, in the last years we were getting an upgrade for special occasions (especially during lower season), but this time they didn't even try to. Overall value for the money is ok.

He estado en hoteles de 3* mucho mejor que este.
Pros:

Las vistas que tiene.

Cons:

Hotel de 5* sin ningun tipo de cuidado, no se que criterio habrán tenido para otorgarle este reconocimiento. Hotel bastante incómodo, se encuentra en la planta 15 de un edificio de convenciones. Para entrar o salir tienes que recorrer los pasillos de una lado a otro. El trato del personal es horrible, muy cutres en todo, la música en la piscina suena fatal, parece que estás en las fiestas del pueblo. Sinceramente no lo recomiendo, porque no lo vale, que no os engañen las fotos, nada que ver con la realidad.

Muy buen hotel, pero se le están empezando a ver los años
Pros:

Muy buena ubicación y fácil acceso.

Cons:

El cuarto no estaba completamente limpio, la mesa auxiliar tenía marcas de agua, en la ducha había pelos en el sifón y también un pedazo de hilo dental en el piso.
