Very disappointed with the check-in. We got there a little bit early for our check-in and of course we were told our room was not going to be ready until 3 PM. They were supposed to call us and let us know. We called at 3 o’clock and they said the room was not cleaned yet, to wait another half an hour. We contact the office again, but it was not ready yet. We never got a phone call. We ended up doing our activities around the area and at 11 PM our room was given. Nobody knew what happened, The food is not good at all, we got stomachache from it. Front desk is not friendly at all.
