Clean room, amenities,there were some friendly staff, met lots of nice guests. Really would have had and excellent stay but there was one staff member part of the hotel restaurant that wasn’t that friendly to me and my sister, and I really think he was judging us. Judging the book by its cover. Not trying to make this a BLACK or WHITE thing but I think he was definitely catering to who he thought my tip or not. And he missed out on some great tips! To say the less. And we had the taxi driver to take advantage of us as well. I believe because we didn’t speak Spanish. But then there was Edgar the hotel front door attendant who was amazing. And the manager Christian and Alvaro the breakfast restaurant was great as well.
