Woodlands was a disappointment. We could not sleep both nights because of the very loud people coming and going on the hall and courtyard, between midnight and 4 am. The toilet in the bathroom had a problem so I had to fix it every time we flush it. Then we had to go to the counter to ask por soap, shampoo and for 2 extra towels. The room I booked was for 5 people. They gave us one with two small beds for the four of us, which had a moldy smell. Bad breakfast, not worthy for what we paid.
