Cid Castilla was very clean, staff was very attentive, rooms are a great size, AC and fan worked great! Plenty to do around. Only bad thing in order to get a chair at pool you must go down at 7am to get your towel and put on a chair like everyone does or else they are taken all day. Beach is super full every day, no room to lay and relax.

Excelente hotel, de verdad que el trato de cada uno del personal es muy humano y amigable, la comida y variedad muy buenas. Los shows en la pérgola muy buenos, igual que las actividades en el día y los jueguitos para niños. El único pero sería el tema de que no hay wifi más que para 2 equipos y nunca pudimos accesar, pero es lo único que vi que podría mejorar. Sin duda regresaré al mismo lugar
