Our original booked room had leaky AC that left puddles all over the ground. Luckily we could switch rooms to a similar view. The volcano view was the best part of this hotel.

Nice, the cabanas are old but clean. Breakfast is okay, à la cart (not a big breakfast but enough) coffee is good. Great location, near everything.

Older hotel that has been remodeled. Rooms were clean, staff friendly and breakfast was delicious. My only complaint were the doors. The chain fell off at one point and the lock could easily be picked.
