A little confusing where to park and check in. GPS took us to the back of the property and we walked through entire hotel, pool area, restaurant etc to get to the lobby to check in. The food was great, drinks were avg. staff were kind; most don’t speak English except in restaurant so that was easy. I loved the hammock on the patio. Pool was nice and clean. The property was very pretty and I felt safe.

The pool was being maintained, so we couldn't use it. There was a sauna advertised, but when we ask about it we were told there was no sauna. The restaurant staff was inattentive and offered a confusing menu option for "extras" in the breakfast choice. Turns out we had to pay full price for something advertised as extras because we had already selected the "included in the price" breakfast option. Yeap....confusing. The food was below average. You can find better options at a local fonda.

So-so hotel.

Pros: Check-in was simple and quick. Our room was clean and beds were comfy. Cons: The pool was out of order however this was unknown to us until we actually made are way to the pool. Nothing was mentioned during check-in nor prior to our arrival. Breakfast was simple but tasty the only problem is that staff seemed disinterested in serving us. We were not offered water, asked how the food was, we got nothing. Part could be because our Spanish is not great but we do know enough to have a basic conversation. We noticed this with other gringos but the same treatment was not given to locals. Overall not a great hotel, next visit to Santiago I will try the Hotel Mykonos and give that a try.

Okay for an overrnight

The hotel is nice, but on a very busy road. Must be a slight decline in the road as large trucks regularly used their air brakes to stop - very loud! We slept with earplugs. Would recommend requesting a room that doesn't face the front. Our room was very clean and large enough for a couch to fit. Wifi did reach our room. We also had a safe in our room. Nice size closet but NO hangars, so fairly useless. It was only an overnight stay so not a big deal for us. Enjoyed the complementary breakfast. The incredibly friendly staff that's been mentioned must not have been working when we checked in as she couldn't have been much less welcoming. The pool is beautiful but we didn't use it. If you're in the mood for good Mexican food, head to Mariachis Taqueria. Small and cute courtyard and very friendly staff

Good value

The only downsides were the absence of wifi in the room, and language barrier. I get it, it's their country, but the hotel details states English as a covered language. Overall an excellent value. We enjoyed our stay and will return. Of course after we learn more Spanish. LOL

I stayed here several times. I have always enjoyed staying here. However, I’ve noticed the food quality slipping this trip. I alerted the staff to my dissatisfaction regarding food that I ordered

Our room was the room closest to the front desk and I had to go tell the clerk that I could hear him talking and it 6:30 am. I think they should not use that room for guests.

To expensive

The Hotel is OK. I think that need more improvements. It's very noisy on time to time and I was supposed to get a suite room and they give me a normal room. Do not have coffee maker or any other amenities to be consider at least a 4 star hotel.

It’s a little overpriced for what it offers. The room Ingot assigned smelled like dust, the TV wasn’t programmed for YouTube or other streaming apps and you had to update it and it still didn’t work. The ac remote I got wasn’t the correct one. Breakfast buffet was okay, some options were cold (they had them in Dutch ovens but the food was cold).

Unfortunately due to an accident I was unable to stay; the hotel showed very little empathy and even though I contacted them to inform them of my accident they were unable to reimburse me or move the date of my stay so I lost the money I had invested.
