I liked best the ambience of the hotel: it is located in the city center, near the Malecon 2000; but the interior has a garden-like setting with the pool and a cool, big and color changing gecko sculpture.

The property was wonderful. Exactly as pictured. The best part however was the staff. They were completely reliable and more than helpful in every way. The rooms were clean and comfortable. Only one small problem was lack of two blankets in the double rooms. The beds had only sheets and one had to put on the blanket.
