Pros:

The breakfast is the best part when staying at this hotel! We really enjoyed it! The first day, we chose from the menu, and we were served quite fast, and the good was great! During the weekend, it was a buffet, and they food was great too!
The breakfast is taken in an attached restaurant to the hotel. The personnel at the restaurant and the hotel were all very nice and polite!
The location of the hotel is good, and the bed are comfortable.

Cons:

The quality of the room we were in was quite low:
- smaller than what we expected
- windows are of low quality, and some do not even open or close properly
- air-conditioning was leaking water inside the room
- low water pressure in the bathroom
- maintenance seems to be none existent or poorly done: guardrails were missing parts due to rust, and were painted over instead; fridge wasn't working properly; freezer didn't work at all;
- the hotel do not have private parking places, and the public places are very limited

Pros:

Ubicación, frente al mar!

Cons:

La primera habitación no funcionó el aire, la segunda iluminación y tv, hasta que nos dieron una tercera, qué estuvo mejor, aunque tenía luces dañadas, estaba mejor. El desayuno, solo hasta el sábado estuvo mejor, los días para atrás, no fueron buenos.
