Las duchas y baños para ser comunes no estaban mal. En la zona de la piscina olía a agua estancada. El personal es amable aunque justo a nuestra llegada intentaron hacernos pagar alegando que solo habíamos pagado por un huésped. Al enséñeles la reserva dijeron que estaba todo bien. ##### Maria jose Stayed 1 night in Feb 2026 ### Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > - [Ruby Zoe Hotel London by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Ruby-Zoe-Hotel-London.h87843675.Hotel-Information) > - [Bahia Principe Explore El Portillo - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Samana-Hotels-Bahia-Principe-Grand-El-Portillo-All-Inclusive.h803207.Hotel-Information) > - [Villas Bimini Islands](https://www.expedia.ca/Bimini-Islands-Villas.d11777-aaVillas.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > - [Hotels in Hurghada](https://www.expedia.ca/Hurghada-Hotels.d1512.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > - [All Inclusive Resorts and Hotels in Dominican Republic](https://www.expedia.ca/Destinations-In-Dominican-Republic-All-Inclusive-Hotel.0-0-d50-tAllInclusiveHotel.Hotel-Filter-Destinations) > - [OMO5 Tokyo Otsuka by Hoshino Resorts](https://www.expedia.ca/Tokyo-Hotels-Hoshino-Resorts-OMO5-Tokyo-Otsuka.h20577295.Hotel-Information) > - [Hotels in Naples](https://www.expedia.ca/Naples-Hotels.d6034774.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > - [Hotels in Lucerne](https://www.expedia.ca/Lucerne-Hotels.d4477.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > - [Hotels in Egmont](https://www.expedia.ca/Egmont-Hotels.d6155858.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > - [Condo Rentals Sydney](https://www.expedia.ca/Sydney-Condos.d178312-aaCondos.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > - [Casa El Paraíso](https://www.expedia.ca/Las-Galeras-Hotels-Casa-El-Paraiso.h109997713.Hotel-Information) > - [Araya Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Samana-Hotels-Araya-Resort.h113298788.Hotel-Information) > - [Wind Valley Farmstay](https://www.expedia.ca/Ranau-Hotels-Wind-Valley-Farmstay.h24182368.Hotel-Information) > - [Spa Hotels in Hermosillo](https://www.expedia.ca/Hermosillo-Hotels-Spa-Hotel.0-0-d1485-tSpaHotel.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > - [Wyndham Alltra Samana All-Inclusive Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Samana-Hotels-Grand-Paradise-Samana-An-Amhsa-Marina-Resort-All-Inclusive.h687339.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > - [Flights from Richmond (YVR) to Los Angeles (LAX)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yvr/lax/vancouver-to-los-angeles) > - [Flights from Mississauga (YYZ) to Cannes (CEQ)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/ceq/toronto-to-cannes) > - [Flights from Mascoutah (BLV) to Whistler (YWS)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/blv/yws/belleville-to-whistler) > - [Flights from Chantilly (IAD) to Buffalo (BUF)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/iad/buf/washington-to-buffalo) ### Cars > - [Thrifty Car Rental Car Rentals In Embrun](https://www.expedia.ca/Thrifty-Car-Rental-Car-Rentals-In-Embrun.d3000481266-c45.Car-Rental-Guide-Suppliers) ### Activities > - [Things to do in Telchac Puerto](https://www.expedia.ca/Things-To-Do-In-Telchac-Puerto.d6265869.Travel-Guide-Activities) ### Packages > - [Cottesloe Beach](https://www.expedia.ca/Cottesloe-Beach-Cottesloe.d6061159.Vacation-Attraction) ### General > - [Visit Norway House](https://www.expedia.ca/Norway-House.dx4012)
