The general four starsHotel standard is compared to four other Punta Cana hotels I know very well. My so-called De luxe room was not luxurious, but very good. Before allerm no mold, no musty relaxing aromas cloakroom parts in the closet and in drawers. The rooms have been renovated, nothing broken, flat screen television, bathrobes, slippers, plenty of towels and thorough cleaning! No noise from inhabited Neighboring rooms! Beach in front of the hotel is wonderful, swim in the sea, but due to strong waves very strong undercurrents impossible. Sea is occasional seaweeds very clean. The condition of the beach chairs at the beach is a disaster. They actually ought to be in the trash. The hotel is very noisy. The construction in the colonial style (main restaurant and two lobby bars) all the sounds extremely halls. In the restaurant and in the entire hotel area were constantly noisy schäppernde dishes-transport car. The beach directly in front of the main building building three until 17:30 o'clock extremely noisy. The announcements are more than annoying and the music usually gray a detention, nerve slaying, aufpeitschend rapartig. The six specialties restaurants quality excellent. The rooms may be nicer, however, if you are the subject of restaurants accordingly to the portion of the Russian guests is extremely high. More than about ten German tourists should not be meeting here. The manners of the Russians are more than just took some getting used to. The manners is also well known. They are the staff of the hotel very condescending towards on. Nevertheless you will of head waiter, bar staff noticeably preferred. Not a single Canadian or German vacationers was ever tried to hold a conversation. The drinks at the bars are excellent. However, I have been cocktails occasional in plastic cups, the Russians only served in glasses. The Christmas lights and decoration was incredibly expensive. The first December to 17 o'clock it's a party at the start of advent organized. Very, very much trouble and efforts.
