Fell way below our expectations and experience of RIU hotels
Pros:

Location

Cons:

Poor mannered unhelpful staff at front desk which was very off putting as a first impression.
Breakfast time chaotic , far too many people being seated at once so long queues and food wasn’t the best .
We’ve stayed at other Riu hotels because of the high standards however our expectations have not been met at this hotel .
Balcony glass screen was filthy so you could barely see through it so the pool view we booked wasn’t really a pool view .

Tesisin konumu güzel ancak sabah kahvaltıda uzun sıranın olmasını ve banyonun oldukça küçük olmasını sevmedik.

Kurze Wartezeiten beim Frühstück, das Hotel ist etwas lieblos, aber ok.

Podrían modificar para que esté excelente
Pros:

Todo muy lindo, la ubicación perfecta

Cons:

No nos hicieron la habitación.y lo que nos molestó es que en el horario del desayuno, nos hacían problemas para sentarnos a los 5 juntos. Asimismo la piscina te la venden como climatizada y el agua está fría. No podes hacer uso de la instalación.
