"Nice place to RELAX and have some quiet time. Altagracia was my favorite because she was very friendly at all times. Un lugar muy tranquilo y son muy amables. Altagracia fue muy amable y el señor que atiende cuando uno llega. La comida puede ser un poquito mejor pero quedé contento con el trato que me brindaron."
"I dont know about pets, i never used the pool. The staff was okk. However, there was no fridge in the room or closet. The food a little high in price for the place and too loud. The manager has no control over the guest."
