Our original room was not ready, there was just a mattress, no covers or anything. The front desk upgraded our room because of the inconvenience. The upgraded room had a dirty shower tub and the heat was not working so it was very cold at night.

The water was extremely (unnecessarily) hot. For those who may not have encountered certain things before, we felt that they should have been explained at check-in. This includes the need to insert your room card to activate lights in the room and the elevator.

Awful Experience

Horrible staff and deceptive marketing practices. Charged us over $500/night for a room with a king size bed but actually only gave us a full and had the nerve to claim it was a “New York king size”. Staff was also extremely rude and dismissive. TV service was awful and channels sucked. Room was small and other guest’s children were allowed to run screaming around the halls all hours. We will never book another Hotel Riu after this experience.

The initial impression of this hotel is that it is well maintained. The lobby is clean, with many places to sit, rest rooms, a bar and small cafe. Check in was painless, except that i repeatedly had to request a receipt. I finally got it on the last day of our stay. The room was exactly as pictured on the web site. A somewhat see-through shower wall makes things a bit uncomfortable. We enjoyed our stay here. The breakfast was outstanding and the bell boys were extremely helpful. The biggest disappointment was that there was no ice machine in the building. We were told to go to the cafe for ice. Although there were three people staying in the room, they would only give us two small plastic cups of ice. Each time, I had to go to the front desk and ask them to for help to get the third glass of ice. This became extremely tedious. The location is perfect, most of the staff is courteous and hard-working, so if you can live without ice, this is a very nice hotel.
