I liked it as it was secluded. Rooms need a lot of work. Pool and outside grounds well maintained and 3 to 11 staff was excellent. No water on my last night. Place needs some TLC and it would be wonderful. It sits in the middle of an abandoned water park.

Solace after storm

Simple and quiet. Staff was helpful in finding local places to eat. Relaxed by the pool with wild parrots and magpies singing nearby. An lone outpost surrounded by a hurricane destroyed waterpark. Locals play pickleball and volleyball there, so it has its own noncommercial community life. Truly restful and quiet.

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
The personnel was great, The Breakfast was great. The hotel has no signage from the road, it was hard to find. There’s no elevator. The room was hot, the AC was not working properly in some of the rooms as we learned when they were trying to find a room for me. No safety at all. The rooms still have a regular key to open. It is so old and dilapidated. I did not feel safe to go in the pool. The Ice machine was out of service. There’s no backup generator in the property; it is mandatory in any hotel in PR.

I liked that it was peaceful, this weekend was a little too crowded, couldn’t go to the pool but the mosquitos were too much. Had to stay indoors due to mosquitos. I liked that there were lots of dogs but they were friendly.

When we arrived at the hotel we realized that the photos are nothing like those that were taken for the promotion, the check-in was quick, we went to the room that was assigned to us and when we entered it smelled musty and the bathroom had cockroaches, we went to the front desk we let him know and they assigned us another room the same had the bottom of the door an opening of two fingers of space we had to ask for a towel to put it in the space so that no animals would not enter, there were many mosquitoes the interior of the room the pool was dirty, the drain of the bathtub and the sink did not go down well the water took a long time to go down, they did not offer breakfast or snacks, the room did not even have a refrigerator, the last day we found a fairly large cockroach in the bathroom, the hygiene of the room was not the best either.

That place should not be open to public. The room we stayed the bathroom was leaking from the ceiling right below the toilet. The toilet was broken water coming from the bottom into the room. It was a nightmare,not able to use the bathroom. Causing us to leave the place early in the morning not able to rest. The aspect of the entire place was worthless. A motel would have been better. I want my money back.

We were given a room that was not meant to be given. Door didn’t close right, room wasn’t ready, room was dirty, AC was leaking and rusted, and shower had no water nor towels. It was the 31st and they were short staffed. Manger tried to give another room but the damage was done since this made us late for an event.
