Good location that’s it Otherwise It’s the worst hotel I’ve been to. Room had a sewer smell, the tv did not work, the lavatory is in the bedroom no inside the bathroom, no garbage pan in the room, top it off poor customer service. DO NOT STAY THERE if you like nice places.

The property is outdated, you need a different WiFi password for every room you enter, the food options are limited and lacked seasoning. We found 2 roaches. Most importantly, majority of the staff did not speak English so getting the things we need to make ourselves comfortable was difficult.

Hotel is nice overall. Nice views. Staff are very nice and do a good job with maintaining the place. I do not recommend the food from the hotel, we did all inclusive and it was not enjoyable at all. We ended up eating out the rest of the time we were there.
