Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was a mix of comfort and convenience. The rooms were more than adequate and comfy, although showing some wear and tear. The service was friendly and accommodating, making my mornings more enjoyable. The location was great for easy highway access but lacked nearby attractions. The dining was good but slightly overpriced for the selection available.
The hotel has a lovely view of San Carlos and offers very clean and comfortable rooms with great views of the lake and swimming pool. The service is generally friendly and cheerful, but there were some disturbances with early morning knocks. The location is convenient with easy access to the highway and a pretty view of the lagoon, although there is some airplane noise. The dining experience was enjoyable with fast service, and the facilities were adequate.
My stay at the hotel was truly remarkable. The rooms were spacious, clean, and had an incredible view of San Carlos; witnessing the breathtaking sunset that night was an unforgettable experience. The service was exceptional, with the staff going above and beyond for my boyfriend's birthday, surprising him with a lovely gesture. The location was picturesque, overlooking the lagoon, although it could benefit from having more dining options nearby. The dining experience, while a bit pricey, was worth it, especially with the delightful breakfast croissants and cappuccinos. The facilities were well-appointed and provided a range of amenities for a comfortable stay.
The hotel rooms are comfortable and reasonably priced, albeit a bit small. The only downside is the thin and soft pillows. The location is convenient for various activities and close to key areas, although not in the downtown area. The service is efficient and kind overall, with some issues regarding additional charges without prior notice. The dining options are varied but may have limited availability at certain hours. Facilities are satisfactory, catering to essential needs.
The hotel provided a nice and clean room with a pool view but had limited room bed options. The service was casual, but the location offered a mixed experience due to some noise disturbances. Dining took a long time with slightly pricey selections. However, the facilities were well-appointed.
