We were greeted with smiles, hugs and a welcome Cuba Libre. After catching up with the latest news, we were shown to our room, 7th... More

Top floor facing the ocean, but I think all the views in this hotel would be excellent since the canal is on the opposite side. The breeze and sound from the ocean flowing through the room was what was exceptional about this place and I |enjoyed it to the fullest. I slept especially well, as the beds were very comfortable...

We stayed at this hotel in March 2009. The service was slow, the guys at the bar ignored us most of the time even though we always tipped them. I told my boyfriend to stop tipping them because they always served others before us even though we were there first. The elevator was out of service, food was so/so. Beach... More
