I rarely write reviews for hotels, but I decided to make an exception this time. We overlooked some of the negative feedback for this hotel in favor of the positive reviews and overall rating. That was a mistake. In my 15 years of active traveling, this was one of the worst hotels I’ve stayed at. It was only the second hotel we’ve ever wanted to leave immediately, and we even booked another hotel for two nights just to spend less time here. Some issues were simply unacceptable for any hotel, regardless of the price. 🔴 What was bad (for the price)? Maybe it was a great hotel in the past, but it clearly hasn’t been properly maintained for some time. * Rust is visible everywhere: on stairs, walls, heaters, and even around the swimming pool. Since the hotel is decorated with metal by design, it looks even worse in the ocean climate * The indoor swimming pool is in poor condition, with algae or mildew visible on the floor. We normally enjoy using hotel pools, but this one was below our standards. * The pool is heavily chlorinated, and the strong smell spreads throughout the entire hotel. It was noticeable at the reception and on all floors, and even for someone without respiratory issues it was unpleasant to breathe * Reception seems well maintained, but the floors do not. The carpet on the first floor was a clear sign of poor cleanliness ‼️ What was totally unacceptable (for any hotel, at any price)? We even tried to change the room, but it was useless, as suggested room had same issues. * Mold on the walls. This was the first time I have ever seen visible mold left untreated in a hotel. It is unhealthy to stay in such conditions. * Very bad smell in the rooms. There was a constant smell of dampness and mold. Ventilation brought in bad odors as well, and even keeping the balcony open all the time did not help.

There was renovation going on for the gym and all the spa sections of the hotel, which were closed. Nothing was offered to compensate that. The room didn’t have a proper table for work, even though it was hosting a business conference.
