1) We rented two rooms. When we checked in, one room we and maintaince could not get in. The other had black mold in the bathroom. We got two new rooms 2) Second set of rooms, both had black mold. We pointed this out to the staff, who refused to refund our money for the stay, so we could go someplace reasonable. 3) When checking out, I found $ 660 had been STOLEN from me and my wifes clothing left in the room by the cleaning staff, as well as her headphones. We reported this to the company. No action was taken. Note: I have NEVER left a negative review like this before. I am very flexible. This is just impossibly bad.

I didn't like anything about this place, staff is rude, bes is made of concrete, my mom had cockroaches in ther room then they came to exterminate them and left a bad odor that they had to open the window. Bathroom was horrible and the room service came to ask for towels even with the do not disturb sign. One night the room almost didn't open and you can hear the next room shower. I tried to cancel my stay but Raphael offered 2 others hotels that were worst. I ended up leaving one day before and losing my money.

Disastrous stay
Terrible experience, room, bed, shower were all terrible. The balcony door was held with a screw, the wind would blow it open, TV didn’t work, no cable or basic channel; no WiFi; shower curtain was small; bathroom floor would get soaked from shower. Hotel should be 1 Star not 3 stars. What a shame becaus the location is very central.

Don't go there. It clouded our whole vacation, because it is a very dirty place. They don't clean the room. And they treat you very poorly all over. Plus they made us pay more at our arrival.
