The food was wack! The staff doesn't speak English. The hotel is 3 hours from the city/airport. The staff is rude!

RIU was a good experience. However, comparing to other RIUs, this one does not have pool service and most of the time one has to walk up to the bar to get drinks. There are no snacks (i.e. popcorn, peanuts, chips served at bars as in other RIUs). Overall it was a good experience.

Ocean view room in front of complex, was simple, good size, clean, AC worked ok. All inclusive is ok, basic food but tasty. No reservations for specialty restaurants. Line up until the place is full, then they give you a pager and call you when there is space. You are on call for a couple of hours... Entertainment is ok. Pools are clean, good size, never crowded. Beach is nice. Construction going on next door. Had a good time for the price.

Omg the food was horrible, the taxis was expensive and none of the employees can speak a little bit of English 😩😩. I found a huge 🐜 in my sauce for my steak.
