Todo excelente, el staff maravilloso desde el primer momento en el que uno llega al hotel, la limpieza es como en ningun otro. Si hemos de recomendar alguno de los restaurantes nos quedamos con el italiano, excelente! Las habitaciones espectaculares, los shows muy buenos. Mucha variedad de comida para todos los gustos. Lo unico que mejorariamos es la temperatura de las albercas/piscinas. Pero en general todo maravilloso, pronto volvemos!

I liked that the rooms were very modern & the mini bar/fridge was fully stocked & we didn't have to pay for the Liquor & beverages. Didn't like the TV selections, there was only 1-volume & no info on channels selected. Also didn't like the fact that the housekeepers entered our room after 8pm & we wasn't aware of it. Once per day was good enough unless called for service. Other then that everything was nice & clean
