Hotel is conveniently located. Spacious room and property was fairly clean. However, every time we showered lots of water leaked into the main bathroom area and toilet area. I asked someone to come check it and they never came. I called a second time to see what happened and the rep I spoke to seemed very annoyed. Since it was late night they said I could just call in the morning and see what they could do or someone may call me, which they never did. I didn’t demand moving rooms bc it was too much of a hassle to repack everything and move. I ended up having to pad the area of the shower with towels to keep the water from covering all our bathroom floor. On the day of check out I asked extended stay and they said I had to pay for it, no exceptions although I’d had issues with the room. During check out I explained what happened to the person checking me out. She explained she was the manager and she would call me back to follow up on the matter. Never heard back from any one. Certainly not the best experience.

There was a leak in our room coming from the air conditioner. This happened twice and both times resulted in a pool of water on the counter and floor. Also, the AC thermostat was not working properly because everytime the temperature was set at 18°C it was go back to 23°C which is very warm.

Great check in process, received upgraded room per Expedia gold status, nice location, I was able to walk to the grocery store, two restaurants, and the Malecon. Friendly and helpful staff. Clean functional gym with all working equipment and air conditioning. Good breakfast, and the two times I ordered room service the food was great. Tv has HD English channels, great view from the 6th floor, relaxing jetted tub in room, and very comfortable beds. Highly recommended and I would and will definitely stay here again.
