Pros:

Cons:

One of the valet was really rude..but maybe he was tired. He was pushy when I did not understand exactly what he meant.

Save money to stay near the beach ⛱️
Pros:

Mario lopez can cook steak ! Manuela is amazing !the Mexican housekeeping she was extra rude .she sent us to the basement and she never help us .the elevator is very confusing .

Cons:

It's not pool and the rooms are very expensive .the Mexican lady the housekeeper is very rude .that chubby housekeeper was very rude .we asked for help and she sent us to the basement she was yelling at us like we must know the exits and entrances .the rest of the staff Anna Manuela Mario and Bradley and Jessie they cool 😎
The food by Mario lopez was good the steak the tacos the meat very chewy and gummy the water taste bad but the rest it's cool .overpriced in my opinion .raise the workers salary please 🙏🏻
This place need a hot tub and a spa

I like the dogs all over the hotel that's the best part my dog is happy here .
