Alright
The room was not great and noisy above the street, the staff were excellent, very helpful, do not use Hotel to secure you a taxi ride, 400.00 pesos over priced. The beds were comfortable and clean sheets every day. The pool was in an odd ball place, right in the middle of dining area, the chair and recliners cushions very dirty. The food was good and reasonable price. All and al about a 2 star hotel
