The front desk manager isn’t very friendly, and the front desk in general is very detached from the clients. I felt like I was the one to greet them every time I walked in. So much that I just stopped saying hi on day two, and I stayed for 12 nights which is a long time. Also, the food is terrible and extremely overpriced. I sent a few things to the laundry and 3 came back stained. NO ONE apologized. I had to say I wasn’t paying for it and they just removed it from my bill but didn’t offer or said absolutely anything. Is definitely more of a business stay type of hotel. The only highlight of my trip was the housekeeper, Milena, she will greet me every morning with a big smile, my room was well kept and she went above and beyond to ensure I was ok.

Extra illegals taxes

I was charged with taxes even though I am an american citizen. That was a scam because no foreigners pay taxes once you paid everything in advance. My mother in law slept one night an I paid extra for it. They wanted to charge me for the rest of the days for her even though she had only slept one night. I did not pay!

The staff at the check in were a mess, they took 1 hour to check me in, on top of this they could not help me with a PCR test for the next morning because i needed to travel to United States. The people at the restaurant were rude, they took 30 mins to deliver a whiskey and a margarita because they were laughing about something(the restaurant was empty, just me and my partner) The next morning when i went to the restaurant i over hear them talk about my partner in a very rude manner. I won’t repeat, i don’t like paying money for people to be rude.

Very nice hotel. Excellent personal. I have to mentioned the room service employee miss Rodriguez on the 11 th floor (sorry I forgot her name). She was on and beyond in her duty to let us feel confortable in our room. We had in the first day some airco issues. Very friendly personall at breakfast and the front desk. I can remember Maria who is allways cortious at the phone. The downside of the hotel is that I can't imagine how a big hotel like Holiday can have such a small breakfast room, I can't call this a restaurant
