Loud Music Faulty Towers.
1st night I was unable to sleep as what i can only describe as a rave went on above our room. Loud music and banging until well past midnight. When i called to complain I was simply ignored.
2nd night after moving rooms the toilet would not flush. I was told its not an emergency so would need to wait until morning to have someone look at it.
The rooftop bar was closed every evening for various private events.
The Jacuzzi pool had a foaming mold in it.
The rooms had to be requested to be made up every day.
The only reason to give 2 stars is the concierge was very helpful and the location was good.

2/10 Poor
Jul 24, 2024
For a person that travels to a lot of places in South America, this hotel is one that I would not recommend. The rooms were dark and gloomy. When you took a bath the water would get out and the floor tiles would be so wet I almost fell two times coming out of the shower.
The service was horrible, it felt like I was in a shelter. The service on the roof top was awful, before you even ordered something the waiter just wanted to know the room number and was not even curious to ask me what I needed first.
I expected more from this hotel especially because of the location it was at, I recommend you spend your money at another hotel.
