8/10 Good
"Incredibly clean property. Our room was spotless! Loved the spacious room, especially the walk-in shower. Good variety of food at buffet breakfast. Unfortunately, due to work being performed, the electricity was cut off for hours 2 days in a row This affected hot water, including the pool, which we couldn't relax in after a day of sight-seeing. In all fairness, we were guests during the rainy season, not high season."

"The hotel was nice and clean and super convenient to the airport. The whole staff was very friendly, but we especially enjoyed conversing with Fernando. My wife and I had a wonderful dinner in the restaurant, and Fernando was our waiter. He was very friendly and made us feel right at home (like we have been friends for years even though we just met). Thank you."
