Fuimos por una noche. Hote pequeñol a pie de playa. Las habitaciones del hotel son acogedoras y limpias, las zonas de piscinas también muy agradables, la atención buena (con algunos miembros del personal apáticos). Sin embargo, con respeto al restaurante, los meseros se saturan y disminuyen la calidad de la atención. Además, el sazón de la comida (al menos de los molcajetes de mariscos) no es bueno, aunque se rescata su presentación. Por otro lado, no son muy formales con los horarios en los reglamentos, pero tienden a ser flexibles para beneficio del cliente (entrega de habitación antes de hora establecida) y eso me gusto.

Me comentó un mesero de otro restaurant que no cobran por usar la piscina si llevas niños solo que con la condición de un cierto consumo en alimentos en el restaurant, Ya que al restaurant que fui me cobraron 70 pesos por pulsera y aparte consumimos 3500 pesos.. luego visitaré al chiringuito restaurant a ver que tal el servicio.
