Staff here are so friendly and service was great. Fabian took time to talk to us in the mornings, he was welcoming and kind. Mario at the Italian restaurant was funny and kind, and provided great service as well. Everyone did a great job, and work so hard. The accommodations are clean and the building is also clean throughout. We had a small issue with our room that came up mid way through our trip, but we were moved right away and there were no other problems. Thanks for a great stay.
