Every there are scammers. Do Not Book if you are from USA. They charged me an additional 925,000 pesos ($350) in order to check-in; which I had to pay cash- no credit card. They said Expedia didn’t pay all the money. Also beware of scammers in town (full). Room full of mold everywhere; including pillows.
