Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
O hotel pede por uma reforma
Vários pontos precisam ser melhorados: ar condicionado antigo barulhento com apenas 3 niveis (alto medio baixo), cheiro de desinfetante forte no quarto, banheiros com piso liso sem antiderrapante... enfim, precisa de uma bela reforma.

2/5 Poor

Traveled with group
Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
I really enjoyed my stay but I have one complaint. The food at the buffet did not have proper labels. Specifically these labels were missing key ingredient for common allergies such as fish and shellfish. I ate a pepper oil sauce that was marinated in tuna fish. I'm severely allergic to fish and my air passages began to shut down. It was carnival so taxis/ubers could not reach the hotel and I was forced to call an ambulance for treatment. The staff was hesitant to call an ambulance but thankfully my friend insisted that they do it. So now I have a medical bill of undetermined amount. I contacted the hotel and they have not responded, which is unacceptable. A simple label could have prevented all of this an not put my life at risk.

We are very happy with our choice and we are looking forward to go back. We love the location and the staff, in special Sr. Joselito at Tapioca station, he’s service was excellent, especially in fix the scrambled eggs from the kitchen, what was the only flaw to us.
