The hotel is in a great location (if you like Barrio Barretto), right on the beach. It is one of the grander hotels in the entire area, with some unique features. This hotel could be great, but the staff ruined it for me. I had lots of problems and the staff always seemed apathetic. They never followed up to see if the problem was fixed or showed any sympathy and didn't communicate well. E.g., the wifi didn't work for many hours; I had to call many times and threaten to check out to get anything done. One day they forgot to clean my room and when I asked for housekeeping at 4:45 and they said they couldn't because it stops at 5 PM. The next time I tried to be proactive by calling at 2 PM to ask to clean my room. They said "sure" but nobody ever showed up. I called back two hours later but nobody answered the phone. I gave up. It really shouldn't be this hard. And so on.
Other problems... If I ever left any food in the room, it would be swarming with ants a few hours later, even if the bag was tied. The room was missing a lot of amenities you'd expect at this price...they didn't have Kleenex, bathrobe, hand towel, or tea bags. Oh, and they wanted 50 pesos for some ice (unlike almost every other hotel I've been to). To be honest, I was happy to leave.
