El lugar es hermoso y el personal es muy atento y amable, pero si hay cosas que mejorar: Baños: el agua en la ducha cuando se colocaba fría salía bien, pero cuando se colocaba caliente salía sucia y que habían algunos cabellos dentro del baño. Comida: podría ser un poco más variada. Organización: no sabíamos a qué lugar eran que estaban los buffet, porque donde se suponía que iba a estar no estaban y lo movían para donde eran restaurantes a la carta.
