Ok for Cuban standards
Hotel
3.5Just like all hotels in Cuba, this hotel has already got older for a long time. I'm imagining something different for a 4 star hotel. It is clean, the location is well-kept, but alltoghether it's really simple maintained for 4 stars. It's comparable with 3 star hotel in the Dominican Republic.
Location
4.0The place is really good, it is the best beach part in comparison with other hotels. It's about 35 min to the airport, when you dont pass by other hotels. There are no shopping or entertainment opportunities in the near, there are couple of small markets in Vadadero, but they are closed at 7.00 and the sidewalks are upfolded.
Service
5.0Roomcleaniness is in order, there are two types of people at the bars, first type rather friendly and second one like persons looking only moody during the whole day. Generally speaking one cannot grump.
Gastronomy
4.0The main restaurant is very good, only the choice of the meals is not that ample, but good, especially the fish, but one should not also compare with the rest of Carribean, it is and it stays a developing country. It is only a pity that there are no terraces, there's nothing more nicer than having breakfast on the terrace in the mornings. There are only two theme restaurants, one can forget about them, they have really disappointed me. There was really nothing else, as only the main restaurant.
Sport & Entertainment
6.0The animation was top, also when you wanted to laze around, a short no and everything is understood, not at all intrusive. That should be like that. What has wondered me the most is that one could come when one wanted, there were ALWAYS free lying chairs, it doesnt matter whether at the pool or on the beach.
Room
3.0The size of the rooms, well it's ok. It's really spartanly equipped for a 4 star hotel. The bed was a doozie, the mattrass was totally worn out. The mirrow in the shower room was also rather old. The shower that was with the curtain in the bath tub, has really disappointed me. One should take clothes hanger with, the couple that were in the closet, were falling down from the pole. There are also shelves missing in the closet, there are only 2 drawers, else nothing is available. Whet it is possible, one should take a bungalow, that was not so clairaudient like the rooms in the main building. One hears EVERY action in the neighbor room, doesnt matter which one :-)
Tips and recommendations
When it's possible, one should give clothes, shoes or soaps as tips, the people are more than grateful for that.
