only thing is the pool was under construction, but they have a sister hotel down the street with an amazing pool that you were able to use actually have two locations of other pools. The staff was more than helpful in the Hot menu for breakfast is amazing. Try the Mexican eggs many people think it is only the buffet but the hot breakfast is also fully included.
The hotel was beautifully kept and very clean. All of the staff were kind and very helpful. All of my needs were anticipated and I enjoyed a great holiday weekend there with all the lovely people. I would definitely stay there again!
I would definitely recommend this hotel, the breakfast was good, my room was clean, the pool I loved it, it had a nice view along with the bar was good as well, and the complimentary drink was good. The staff was friendly and the location was great. I was able to walk to the restaurants and the meeting points for my excursions. The clock tower is right around the corner, so it is walkable. Overall I give this stay a 10/10
My 7th or 8th time in this hotel due to the location, staff and amenities. The restaurant on site has yummy food and the rooftop pool is great especially in the late afternoon/evening. Staff is amazing.
Room was so nice and spacious with a view of the ocean. Staff very friendly and helpful. The breakfast is outstanding they have a buffet but also made to order items. They als had two for one margarita and mojitos happy hour. Very central to old town. Only con is laundry was very expensive but they did a great job so worth it.
