Ya falta una actualización de las instalaciones.
Pros:

En general bien, es un hotel tradicional, con comida decente, el personal muy atento, un agradecimiento para Victor en la playa su profesionalismo y amor por el servicio se nota a leguas, bien por ese lado; el lunar del paseo fueron un par de personajes, uno en la recepción y los que atienden en el bar de la playa que deberían tomar un curso para atención al público, parece que se les olvida que los clientes están allá para diversión y placer no para aguantarse las carotas de mala gana.

Cons:

Ya los baños están para hacerles una actualización, y capacitación al personal del bar de la playa es necesario.

Pros:

La posibilidad de estar en la playa hasta tarde y en el bar de la playa por la noche.

Cons:

No me gustó que después de pagar 4 personas con desayuno, nos dijeron que debíamos pagar por el desayuno de nuestras hijas por su edad, esta información no es clara en booking y nos sentimos engañados. Al hotel igual no le importó el reclamo y nos cobraron los desayunos adicionales, no nos lograron mostrar en donde diga claramente y en español que el desayuno para niños no está incluido!

Tranquilidad
Pros:

La tranquilidad. El estar a pie de playa. La comodidad y el silencio en las habitaciones. El desayuno es excelente, el bufete es muy variado y muy completo. Las piscinas son grandes y limpias.

Cons:

Las bebidas, sentimos que no eran 100% naturales, parecían que las mezclan con artificiales, por ejemplo la limonada y el jugo de naranja. Pedimos jugo de níspero y sabía mal, no nos lo cobraron. Los cocktails muy bajos en alcohol
