The shuttle is a great addition, the pool area is fine, the breakfast as no meat what so ever, and the authentic restaurant leaves a LOT to be desired at dinner service. The quality and service for dinner is abysmal. The pillows and mattress have seen better days, the rooms are spacious but the walls are thin and its very noisy at all hours of the day.
