Hotel cerca de la playa, con cuartos pequeños, el baño no tiene aire acondicionado, necesitas dejar la puerta abierta lo que es realmente incómodo. Necesita más manutención, algunos rincones se miran sucios o con moho lo que no ayuda si eres alérgico. No está a la altura de llamarse Hilton. Por último tienen transporte a la playa pero no es “gratis”, el conductor no pide “exige” tips de 3 a 5 dólares por pasajero, sale más conveniente viajar en uber o pelear por un parqueo gratis, Si gratis en la playa.

All aspects of the hotel were great except for 2 things. Unfortunately they were 2 big things. The mattress was terribly lumpy and very low in the center! Also, all 4 pillows smelled SO bad we couldn’t sleep on them; and used rolled up towels. I will say that the room was very clean and the staff was great and knowledgeable about the area.
