10/10 Excellent
"Everything was fine except for the Personal service on the pool area they take too long to serve you drinks maybe they need more people to work there Then we try to eat dinner at restaurant La Coyota and whoever was in charge that night was kind of rude. We asked for a table for four people, and he told us he didn’t have one he only have tables 2 people we tell him OK we take two tables then then he told us he had waiting list, but nobody was waiting there He tells us to come back like one hour, we decide to go eat buffet after that"
