The view from the hotel patio was extraordinary. The hotel it self was not so great. Roaches in the room, had to be very careful not to leave luggage on the floor, hoping to keep the roaches out of our luggage. The beds were old and worn out. The rooms overall were dated and in need of repair. I was told you have to request house keeping, so I did. They never came. The pool was nice.
