Air Conditioning Issues
The air conditioning unit in my room was extremely loud and did not cool the room properly. Instead of providing cool air, it emitted humid air, making the room quite uncomfortable. Additionally, I noticed that the air conditioning in the lobby and dining room was not functioning during lunchtime on the day of my arrival, which added to the discomfort.

I had the pleasure of staying at this hotel with my close friend. Cesar and Alfredo made the stay very pleasant and welcoming and I appreciate them. The room cleaning was excellent however I feel like they went through my belongings but I do not know for sure. The food was pretty nasty but the drinks and fruits offered were delicious. For the price you pay I guess that is expected. The rooms were nice and not a catfish and it was very easy and affordable to call cabs directly to and from the hotel.

Overall its a nice place. Pros: clean, secure, across from the beach, close to shops and 10 minutes from the major sites. Cons: not a lot of food options. Paid for all inclusive it only included buffet option. As a plant based pescatarian most choices had diary and meat so I had to pay to eat at other places. There was construction happening all day and loud music mid day to late night so it was hard to rest and work remotely.
