Summary of reviews

Guests say
Guests appreciated the friendly staff and nice atmosphere, but many expressed concerns about cleanliness, room size, and the availability of amenities. The strong mould smell in some rooms was particularly alarming for families with young children. Reservations for restaurants were difficult to secure, and some guests found the facilities not up to the expected five-star standard.

Pros (+) We met Jose at the Iguana bar. He manages his bar amazingly. He made certain that everyone enjoyed their visit. A professional bartender that excels at what he does. We hope to find Jose again during our next visit.
