Enlarge letters A A Downsize letters A Apositive: great area, almost like a zoo (wild Aras, chipmunks, iguanas, howler monkeys, racoons, etc...), very clean beach, friendly staff. But: the pool (greetings to Volker, the September assessed) is not yet finished tiled, one half is locked and, on Sundays workers knock down the old tile. For an International hotel too little staff with considerable foreign knowledge (90% not even English-basics. Help me most friendly Bartender, if it is mainly required except for the cocktails nothing understands?). At least four times a week open-air-disco (ultra loud with the hammer-bass on the threshold) until three o'clock, otherwise until 1 o'clock. After a good hour noise, until all disco visitors in their rooms are. In the five days we were there, three major groups have been processed 15-25-year-old party people (apparently holidays in Costa Rica), which made this offer rain and noisy use. Since we had our room 200 meters in linear distance (without soundproofing in between) to the disco had, we came into the first two nights over a maximum of three hours of sleep and complained at the front desk. Here comes Heberth (it really is his name, Herbert! Not) come into play: friendly, conscientious, even very good German knowledge. He worried a-room very far away from the disco. Just as good as the last, but clearly silent. Now we have had only the ' angeheiterten ' disco returnees to bear, but with a little patience worked. Heberth is the employee of the month November! Issue of food: all-inclusive with a buffet in the morning, at noon and in the evening, plentifully and much selection, but completely on Cesenatico and US American taste relax in comfort and style. Was not my cup of tea. But I still increased (with three warm meals a day no wonder). Much worse than the food were the circumstances, in this first ran to come: thanks to bad organization was probably anytime again up to 70 meters long lines in front of the 'cafeteria', because they were closed, if all the tables were occupied. Since one could then half an hour in the sun or in the rain, to stay what became free. The steak house next door was closed (breakfast/lunch) or guests with booking (in the evening) reserved. The biggest complaint was the 20-hour irradiation: from the moment we arrived I thought, to be in a station concourse. Noise from everywhere, everywhere at least two competing very loud music sources, within earshot of the hosts in the samples for those regular evening children swimming contest (of course with 'chant' and Wummer -bass), pool noise, next to the pool bar-music, and of a seemingly hotel own band with a singer, the only one chord. Then open-air disco. You could nowhere sit down, have a drink and a chat, without thereby to yell at each other. Pure torture! These five days were a quiet end of a tight dreicwöchigen hiking trip planned. That is why for us totally off the mark. If you like to party makes, it will love.
