Good choice for the money. I wish we had better day and evening entertainment . We didn’t like the company who did the transportation from and to the airport. We had to pay for the taxi on our way back to the airport because they were offering 4 hours earlier pick up. It was very difficult to contact them from the beginning when the hotel sent their email and telephone. I think everything should be organized quickly and well by the hotel or company with which they work.
