And well, I had to settle for using a completely dirty bed, and all this happened on the first night of my stay. The next day, when I went down for breakfast, I ordered a hot meal that never arrived at my table. After an hour of waiting, I opted to go to the person who had taken my order to cancel it. So, in conclusion, this place is very poorly organized with very bad service in general. Everything was just more than disappointing.

There was not enough parking spaces. When we arrived there was a private event being hosted. The attendees of the event took all the parking space. We had to park on the side on top of the side walk. Also, the private event was in the rooftop by the pool. The private event hostess was not happy that occupants of the hotel were using the pool while the event was going on. Also, at first they denied our entrance to the pool because of the private event. We the

we booked the room in Expedia, as it was offering breakfast. But, the hotel gave us only "cold" breakfast, and said we had to pay more for "hot" breakfast items. So, this was completely unacceptable.

We had an absolutely amazing time at this hotel! The service was top-notch, with friendly staff who went above and beyond to make us feel right at home. The cleanliness of the place was impeccable, and the food was simply delicious! Every moment spent there was nothing short of fantastic. But the cherry on top? The breathtaking views from the restaurant, rooftop, swimming pool,and our rooms were truly mind-blowing! Nestled in an incredibly beautiful location, the hotel is just a quick 15-minute drive from the stunning Valle de Guadalupe. It was the perfect getaway, and we can’t wait to go back!

Parking lot is not finished. I paid extra for cold chilaquiles, cold eggs, no flavor creamers, no friendly access to the beach, room was hot when I got in , it cool down but then too cold. Paid for two more guess in our room however I had to ask for blankets, pillows, sheets and towels. The second bed was a sofa but it states it can sleep two more people but actually the sofa is for one people . Sofa was uncomfortable to sleep for two people. The view was really good to the ocean.
