Gran Evenia Bijao - All Inclusive

Gran Evenia Bijao - All Inclusive

10/10 Excellent
"Well, the hotel needs to work on a better maintenance, the wall paper on the bathrooms is falling, there is rust every where on the building, lots of old furniture thrown behind the building. And the show at night is very poor, almost a waste. On a good note, food was wxcellent, the slides are good and hopefully they are planning to add some more. All and all a good experience, but needs a little tighting up to make it a better experience."
