Very small rooms, bathrooms, and grounds. The pool area is nice, but also small. Shallow pools. Definitely not a place for kids.

The hotel is very ...

The hotel is very beautiful and the rooms are lovely, but unfortunately, smoking is allowed everywhere — including around the pool. The pool itself is quite small, and the fact that guests are allowed to smoke cigarettes and cigars there makes it uncomfortable for non-smokers. It’s disappointing, as it discourages many people (like myself) from enjoying the pool area. In my opinion, smoking should be limited to designated areas and not permitted in shared spaces like the pool. This issue significantly impacted my experience, and I wouldn’t choose to stay here again for that reason.

The rooms and kitchen ...

The rooms and kitchen were clean and two bed rooms are useful for the family, but they were small and dark. The pool was small and patio was not comfortable because of insects and noise. This hotel doesn't provide breakfast and lunch. We have to go outside and wait in a line. I chose this hotel because I expected some delicacy for the guest service but there were not. The staff making Mohito in poolside didn't look hygienic and the other staff on lobby didn't provide detailed information about hotel services. Definitely it was not worth the price.
