The dining area is clean and quiet. The ambiance is really nice. Perfect for a quiet breakfast with your family. I loved the service by Gab and Chelssy. They make recommendations on what drinks to order and what food to try out. The selection of food is good - tastes nice as well. This was included in our room rate so I’m not sure how much it costs to dine without the breakfast buffet

Excellent, welcoming staff! From Agustin who took care of us at breakfast each morning, to the front desk, the doormen, the waitstaff at the rooftop cafe, and the cleaning staff, each and everyone made us feel special and welcome. The hotel is clean and modern, we felt safe and secure, and were able to relax whether in the rooftop pool, dining, or reading in our room.
