En general todo bien. El servicio de limpieza de cuartos muy bien, la alberca muy bien. La gente del buffet, la que prepara los huevos, quesadilla y sirve los frijoles y chilaquiles muy bien, pero los meseros no son malos, son lo que le sigue, malos para atender, pero lo peor es que te quieren cobrar ...
