Pros (+) The location
Cons (-) - the room was way too small, you couldn’t fit 2 suitcases in the room - in the morning you could hear the people at the pool talking like they are in your room - there is no hot water - the staff requested to be tipped at the check in - they asked at what time we want to do the check in but the room was not ready - problems with the POS at reception - there are 2 pools, but so small that you can’...

Cons (-) A better description online of the rooms and more accurate photos would be helpful. I was shocked when we walked into the double room and would have never booked it if provided ample photos before hand.

Karen, Aug 2024
Pros (+) The service! We were faced with a series of inconveniences, but the staff at the hotel made sure we were well taken care of. We were supposed to stay at the Palmas, but we were changed to Leones de Alba because of a humidity issue at the Palmas Hotel. We were given a nice room but unfortunately, there was a fly (insect) issue and the hotel moved us to another larger room. The staff was readily ava...
Cons (-) This hotel does not have an elevator, so for those with rusty knees, the flights can be a bit challenging. There was noise from the street at night, but manageable.
