Nov 25, 2024Great weekend trip
This was a great hotel in the perfect location! Service was awesome and the included breakfast was amazing. There was something for everyone. The only negatives were the pillows (same as all RIUs so was expected) and it was surprisingly difficult to get standard washcloths. Outside of that, our group of 8 had a great time. The little shop has the best fresh pineapple juice and cheesecakes as well.

RIU Family Stay
Great value for money, the location was in the center of business and fast food restaurants. Hotel itself was very clean, welcoming staff and wonderful entrance. The room was very nice, big and clean, got a wonderful view, comfy beds, nice bathroom with a hot shower, Tv and WIFI. Breakfast was ok but after awhile I got tired of eating the same thing everyday. Would Definitely stay again

Outstanding hotel!
Everything about this hotel is outstanding! I was here for business and I really enjoyed it! The location is really convenience and really close to a lot of restaurants and everything. Rooms are very spacious and clean with comfortable beds. Breakfast is incredible, there is a very wide selection of anything you want! There is an amazing outdoor pool with bar and restaurant next to it, very nice atmosphere and beautiful environment. At night you can get your favorite cocktail by the pool and enjoying the music. So nice! There’s a coffee place inside the hotel always open and with snacks and drinks for a quick refreshing. People and the entire hotel staff are amazing! Everybody is very nice, polite and always smiling! I highly recommend this location and I will definitely be back. Thank you Riu

I'd Stay Again!
This property is absolutely beautiful. And its centrally located. Food, mall, coffee shops, banks..everything is within walking distance or short uber ride. And there are plenty out front waiting for you. The breakfast buffet was AMAZING! If you are foodie, just book here. My room had an gorgeous view, 19th floor. The staff was warm and friendly. I would definitely stay again.
