Fue un estadía tranquila, el aire funciona perfecto, si llegamos a ocupar algo se nos proporciono, la señora del aseo muy amable, al igual que el recepcionista, solo un poco molesto es que enfrente hay un estacionamiento y pues toda la noche oímos la musica y los amigos de la recepción no nos mencionan que al retirarse hay que entregar toallas y pues hay que regresar por ellas eso es comunicación de los empleados, en general es bueno bonito y barato. Gracias por su atención
Es un hotel cómodo y el mar está cruzando la calle, lo único malo era la persona que estaba encargada era un poco grosero y aparte no cambiaba las sábanas solo sacudían y volvían a atender y se le hizo saber al encargado y se molestó, también por si traes vehículo hay cupo limitado para coches de lo contrario lo dejas en la calle.
Agradable hotel. Habitaciones cómodas y limpias, todo en buen estado. Trato amable. Las fotos publicadas si corresponden al hotel menos la primera.
Fue excelente la atención, amables a todas horas incluso por la madrugada,nos gustó mucho,el clima bien,tamaño de cuertos bien,el único pero es que el agua se va lento en las regaderas; de ahí en fuera salimos muy contentos y claro que regresaremos.
Excelente hotel 100% familiar y limpio, no encontré presencia de plaga alguna. Excelente para asistir con niños cuenta con alberca. Habitaciones de buen tamaño, solo falta estructura de closet. Excelente ubicación, la playa esta cruzando la avenida. Ubicación exacta detras de la gasolinera que esta frente a los hoteles que les llaman las torres gemelas. Me volveré a hospedar sin dudarlo, por favor no descuiden la limpieza!!!
Great Hotel and good location. I recommend for families and reasonable prices.
El hotel está bien ubicado solamente hace falta shampoo en la regadera, las habitaciones son muy cómodas les hace falta donde colgar ropa para que no se arrugue, solo hay el bote de basura del baño y el bote de basura exterior está muy inaccesible
Muy buena atención recibida, buena ubicación, y buena limpieza recibi el cuarto muy limpio, en general un lugar cómodo para quedarse por un precio justo y a unos pasos de la playa.
Coastal area with Centro Internacional Acapulco events, a 9-hole golf course & relaxed Icacos Beach.

Short, honest notes are more useful than long ones. A few sentences about what worked, what surprised you, and who the hotel is best for will go a long way.
