The property was very dirty. There was a leak in the bathroom and no hot water. There was no soap in the bathroom. The floors, the toilet, and the shower were messy. Also, the elevator wasn’t working so we had to take the stairs just to the second floor but it is a tall building not sure if it has 6 or seven floors. The hotel is in a great location but not worth it for the high price.

We were comfortable in a room in front of the pool. The room is a little outdated, however they did have AC (a must in Veracruz) and it is not to far from the aquarium. However it is a long walk under the sun to get to the malecón. Just get a cab from two blocks down and be there in no time if there is no traffic (and it's pretty cheap). The buffet was really good.

No tuvimos luz y por tanto el aire acondicionado no servía, al menos no hacía calor. Luego se fue el agua caliente y tuvimos que bañarnos dos días con agua fría. No tiene servicio de comida. La alberca se veía un poco sucia, no nos metimos. El edificio se ve muy decaído y descuidado, nada que ver con las fotos de la publicación. Preguntamos si podíamos tener un reembolso (viernes) y nos dijeron que si pero contabilidad llegaba hasta el martes y no teníamos la certeza de que realmente lo hicieran, así que tuvimos que quedarnos. El personal es muy amable, entendemos que ellos no pueden resolver todo, pero definitivamente no lo recomiendo. Por último, las sábanas que nos pusieron estaban manchadas de sangre, las fundas y sábanas "blancas" se veían amarillas por lo viejas y percudidas que estaban y la cama estaba muy muy dura, se notaba el colchón viejisimo. La tele no tenía ningún canal y no es smart, así que tampoco pudimos abrir ninguna app.

Las fotos no son la realidad del estado actual

Nunca dijeron que el elevador funcionaba y nos dieron uno de los pisos muy arriba, pasillos oscuros, sin teléfono en el cuarto con cables arrancados, si querías comunicarte a la recepción tenías que bajar y subir escaleras, las fotos no son nada a lo que es realmente, la piscina sucia, como agua estancada, con guano de palomas y había unos cables eléctricos sin protección al ras de la alberca, no tenía filtros de limpieza la alberca, el estacionamiento parece más a una bodega improvisada, nunca vi los restaurantes funcionar, muy mala experiencia, no volvería a reservar ahí.
