Have never seen so much seen dirt! archived

A shame that you have such beautiful resort so runterwirtschaften! The garden is beautiful, but when you were in the room didn't feel good walked the whole holiday. Such a dirty disgusting bathroom with shreds of towels ( if you're lucky to get had) I have ever experienced; the dirt was in the tub, the rusty fixtures. The Fußdoden was so black, that I had to discard my white slippers there. The strongest possible terms were the dead flies in the coffee pot, thus make any work up an appetite before use was passed the coffee maker. On the TV ... and the tables you could write a cloth, since they were never seen! Offer at breakfast was poor, no toast, no yogurt; was always missing dishes! read more

Caribbean disappointment, Mark 4 archived

I rate this hotel objectively as pure "Schöngerede" in this forum for you not helpful for a beautiful holiday experience. POSITIVE: The hotel consists of an expansive landscaped gardens with palm trees. Several pools are located centrally located at the The activities area next to the hotel lobby, which features a bar. All drinks are designer toiletries ( i.e. Diet Coke, Sprite ), Cocktails (40 different) are also available in all inclusive. Breakfast, lunch, dinner, snacks as well as an Italian. Restaurant ( all inclusive. ) were very versatile and perfect without faults. On the beach there were enough ... beach chairs in the sun and coverings at 10 a. meters. available and the WITHOUT hand towel war! Neutral: daily activities only by the pool but OK. Internet Sale ( circa DSL1000) in the area For 2 USD per 30 minutes. NEGATIVE: transit from the airport to the hotel Punta Cana over four Stu. Bleifuss about floor&stone, make sure you get off the plane a 0, 5l bottle of water keep them you need it!!! At check-in is there for the in-room safe key 18th century Rent per week 25 USD Rip off! Unfortunately it was also the room a let down. The bathrooms were dirty, broken tiles and mold ( see video) Mark 6! You don't have to German but at least English and can not only Spanish! The hotel was located in the midst of one of many hotel ruins with trash beach sections. The beach vendors nerves in 10 minutes. Every and understand and again no NO. Absolutely great but the hotel beach with sea views, everything is full of sea grass and seaweed on land and water ( see video) Mark 5. Swimming was only with bathing shoes because stones, Koralen and sea urchins. Beach holiday is different from!!! read more

The hotel belongs to some of the oldest hotels in the region, but it is absolutely recommendable. Rooms were clean, the personnel exceptionally friendly, the meals varied, always something for all tastes. The beach was OK and the sea dreamlike. Shopping possibilities by the Plaza Chocholata or Plaza Luna. One should definitely book excursions there instead of at the hotel as they are considerably cheaper!!! read more

    Room 300 part 1, very unclean, very old, air-conditioning totally rusted out, bathroom very imperfect check out the service

  • Gastronomy
    1.0

    Food very insufficient, very few spots for the people masses, the personnel couldnt catch up with refilling the meals, you had to wait about 20 min for the bread during the breakfast, likewise it was possible to get the normal salad dressing sometimes after 5 times of requesting in one hour. At times there are very few personnel available for the peak-hours.

    in the mornings at about 9/9.30 the hand towels were taken away for the laundry and were again fresh provided at about 17 o'clock, a problem when you want to take a shower in the afternoon, but you cannot wipe yourself off
