One of the worst hotel stays ever. Definitely not a 3 star as advertised. Check in was tedious. The door to our room was wide open when we arrived. There were empty beer cans laying around on the patio. Washroom was tiny but had three floor levels which made for great tripping hazards in the night. When we ran the shower water poured out from under the shower stall into the bathroom. We had no blankets on our bed, just sheets. At first I thought that the one good thing was the view. We were a stones throw from the Malecon and looked out at The Bridge going into The romantique zone. Unfortunately the traffic and people noise was horrendously loud. To make matters worse they gave us ‘The Expedia Suite’ right below the night club/ bar and listened to pounding techno music and chairs and people stomping around above our heads. Shutting the windows didn’t help much but we did anyway and turned on the A/C which began dripping water in our heads as it was situated right above our bed. It was a night from hell. We checked out the next day despite having paid for two nights in advance via Expedia.

Just average
The hotel’s patio is nice. The pool is a plus and the terraza has beautiful views. The location was good. The rooms are not as nice as outside, just average. We had problems with the bathrooms, clogged, the room I reserved was not available and did not even exist, No toilet paper or soap, we had to keep asking for it, and the sheets on the bed were dirty. Other than that it was ok.
