Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Mixed breakfast experience — Breakfast is basic and served in the room as a bag with medialunas. Some guests found it poor, though it starts from 6 am.
- Potential for pushy sales tactics — One guest reported being upsold tours immediately upon arrival and asked to pay upfront, which felt pressured.
- Comfort rating lags behind other categories — While rooms and facilities score well, the Comfort category is rated 6.5 — the lowest of all rating categories.
- No pets allowed — The hotel does not permit pets, which may be a drawback for travellers with animals.
