Beach is beautiful, personal is mostly rude, explained nothing about the hotel dismissed us very quickly for checking, sent u to concuerge who said we aould do a tour and all she did was basically dumped us in the middle of the hall, she was the rudest. Lady st the buffet entrance super unwelcoming as well and the mscicsn restaurant. We were only one night so it seems silly we couldnt book the mexican restaurant, we went to ask and the restaurant was completley empty. They said it was super full and also flr the italian when actually it was never full either of them. Buffet menu for dinner is dissapointing, very few opions and my pasta was undercooked. Beds are very uncomfortable and is super noisy in the hotel you hear every person walking on the stairs.
