I booked because this hotel show in the web page shuttle service included. Once at the airport I was told by telephone there was service only on a 10 km radius and they won't be able to pick me up. I took an Uber and noticed the ride was only 4 km. When I asked the front desk about it, the lady seemed upset, then she told me the hotel doesn't have pick up service, only drop off, and that would be over the pedestrian bridge outside of the airport because they don't have authorization to get into the airport. On my way back the driver also seemed upset because he had to drop me back to the airport. The room was neat and clean, it's a shame the service was so bad and their advertisement misleading.

At check in they did not see that the two rooms had heen prebooked and paid for. They wanted to charge me for the two rooms and it took awhile for them to find my reservation. I even showed them the receipt of payment on your website, but that did not convince them i had paid. The elevators were terrible. They needed the room key to activate and even that did not well. A few times i just rode up and down until i finally got to my floor. One of our rooms had not been cleaned at all.

Disliked: Amenities
This is a good stay for 1-2 night, but not for vacation. Very small room, no fridge, no coffee maker or even a kettle. Breakfast is served from 6:00 till 9:00. For sure at 8:30!there is a crowd of people. Nobody wants to have a breakfast at 6:00 am on vacation. So from 8:30 there is a collapse in the restaurant, no tables available, 2 times I was waiting for sandwiches for more than 15 minutes. Plates, bowls, glasses, cups are located under counters with food, so you can’t take them as people are selecting food. Omelet or eggs are not included into free breakfast. You have to buy it for 272 pesos. Nobody in the hotel speaks English. Nobody responds when you call reception. One elevator didn’t work for 4 days. I was trying to tell reception about that… but I don’t speak Spanish. Pluses: good location - close to the beach, cruise port, Walmart and Gallery mall. Cleaning service is good. I ordered twice food from the hotel’s restaurant. It’s really good and the price is reasonable. Sorry for so negative feedback, but I guess you need to delete by Marriott from the hotel’s name then guests’ expectations won’t be too high.
