The bar and staff were great, but the meals at the buffet were horrible. We had to eat out most of the time except for breakfast and fruit.

Park Royal Beach Ixtapa - All Inclusive
Food was okay! What i did not like is only two elevators were working. There was a lot of people waiting in line. Pool was not too clean. And overall it really sucked because thanks to airline Aeromexico we lost a day at the hotel.
