Stayed in a mini suite off the main lobby. Had decent amenities and we were able to cook in our room. Bed was comfortable and the room staff was attentive. Had breakfast at Cafe Lago buffet (760 pesos for 2ppl) and other than the bacon being by request only the food was good. Had dinner at Frida's(950 pesos for 2 ppl) and that was a wonderful experience. Only disappointment was that Taco Break was closed for remodeling, so there was no where to go for a quick Taco after 6pm (when Balche closes and becomes Frida's). Drinks were affordable at the pool bar at ~120 pesos for a mixed drink and ~80 pesos for beer. The Jade store had decent prices and has plenty of snacks, food and souvenirs. The beer was better priced at ~30 pesos per can. Liquor was hit and miss. Cigars are available and from what I can tell they were real Cubans. Though like most legit Cubans are over priced at ~500 pesos for a small cohiba. Overall the property was well maintained, affordable, friendly staff (avoid the time share presentation), and decent amenities. Would recommend to my friends.
