En general el hotel es bonito pero pequeño, hay creo 10 habitantes en total, el servicio de la encargada y sus ayudantes siempre es muy amable y en general son muy serviciales. El lugar está cerca de varios restaurantes y a pocos minutos del centro. Sueles apreciar, libélulas, pericos, lagartijas y colibries en sus instalaciones. Lo que no me agrado a la alberca le falta tratamiento continuo, sobre todo cuando el hotel está lleno...

Todo estuvo realmente de maravilla. La atención del personal es fantástica y los alimentos muy ricos. Lo único que recomiendo es limpiar frecuentemente los juegos infantiles ya que mi niña no puedo subir por las telarañas. La alberca está preciosa y muy bien cuidada, las camas muy cómodas.
