I had a great experience with Hotel RIU, the staff was very friendly and welcoming! Everything touristy is super close and easy to get to, with most distances being 20-minute walks, if you’re not comfortable with taking the subway. I’m looking forward to staying here again in the future!!

"They lost my reservation, and wouldn’t work with Expedia for the miscommunication. Something was wrong with their system… and Expedia is also to blame… We had to find our own way. Just terrible on both ends…. We paid for this month’s in advance. Wouldn’t recommend to stay here… its a gamble."
