Great stay

This is one of my go to places for rest/relaxation without venturing out. Food is great, service is always wonderful and staff is attentive to everything. Management had to drive me to Novaqua Spa, I mentioned I had the “top” man helping me, he replied “no the top person are our guests”. That’s how I always feel since staying with them in 2015 onwards.

Nice place but very disappointed to find out that people from outside can pay fee dollars and use the pool! They have a public pool already next to the Hosteria. I was looking for a relaxing time in the termal water with my family but there were kids diving, people swimming and raising , and nobody there to stop them. I guess there are no rules for the pool! Next time I can stay somewhere much cheaper and pay $8 for the entrance !
