Hotel's website is dishonest: no satellite TV or remote (6 basic Spanish channels with no sub titles), rooms not air conditioned (central air not working or turned on) , no gift shop, no children's pool.
Tiny room. Luggage had to be stored in closet. No light in closet required luggage removal for retrieval of any item.With no air conditioning had to keep windows open. No screens... after 2nd night counted 17 mosquito bites on head, neck, arms. Very noisy...could hear everything that went on in nearby rooms. Shower had a hole in partition and flooded bathroom floor. Shower floor not sanitary, bathroom window very dirty.
Elevator leveller system doesn't work properly missing its position by 2 to 8 inches leading to stubbed toes or stumbles. Wireless internet cost 50 pesos/24 hours and then of very short range (didn't work at bar next door) and not 100% reliable.
All staff very rude and unhelpful with the exception of the 2 English speaking doormen. Was made fun of by desk staff. Food and beverage staff in overpriced restaurant unwilling to assist even when I was the only customer. No complementary ice to cool beverages in room. (ca be obtained at the liquor store across the street cheaply).
Take the $5 you save on Wi-Fi and spend it on an upgrade to a nicer property that includes internet access.
Only redeeming factors: pool (closes too early at 8:00 PM), decent location, price.
STAY AWAY UNLESS FLUENT SPANISH SPEAKER ON A VERY TIGHT BUDGET.
