Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Good property, not much to do around, but maybe is because is low season.
The property was nice, and the rooms were well clean. The door to the gym and pool was always locked, and when you asked the front desk to come and open, they always hesitated. That was my only problem,

Good hotel but thin walls
Nice hotel, what you expect for the price. Biggest issue was that you could hear everything between the rooms and in the hallways
This is the perfect hotel if you just want to chill with minimal noise. It’s a short drive from the clock tower and it is near Getsemani/Centro. It is very easy to grab a taxi, and there is also a souvenir outlet nearby. Not to mention the abundant amount of restaurants walking distance. The only downsides are the room ventilation is poor. The room/bathroom can get very humid, so the ac has to be on constantly.
The staff was friendly. The property was nice and clean, where we were was close by a lot of different shops and restaurants and stores. I enjoyed my time there, and if I ever go back, I would stay there again.
Quick check in, comfortable and clean room, good service by receptionists not so much from the staff in the restaurant. Good wifi.
The hotel is in a good location for bars and restaurants and a 10 minute walk from the beach
The staff and faciiities were very good. More of a three star than four star hotel. The food quality at breakfast (included) was mediocre at best. They would be much better off offering a buffet versus the cook to order eight options offered. Definitely needs improvement, though the fresh fruit was a nice touch. A note about the shower: For hot water, you have to turn the handle to the RIGHT and let it run for about five minutes. They should either reverse the direction as most are used to hot water being turned to the left or put a sign above the handle to indicate the proper direction for hot along with the wait time.

The hotel room was impeccably clean and the hotel was staffed with fabulous personnel, but the modern ambiance added to its charm. The breakfast included was simply amazing, making my stay even more delightful.

Unfriendly and disrespectful
Hotel was fine. The service was fine. I had a second stay booked for later this week, but cancelled after I was given a hard time about bringing my son and his wife to the pool after a day on the beach. The way I was spoken too was NOT ACCEPTABLE. I will NEVER stay here again. If you’re ok with not being treated like a homeless person off the steer, then go ahead and stay here. Otherwise, find a friendlier place to stay. There are MANY others to chose from. I want to send a special thank you to Lady, who treated my son in an extremely rude way. I hope you get fired!
