Trouble to check in / Problemas con el check in
The place is as described on the page, it feels like home and the view from the balcony is beautiful, you can see the sunrise, the pools and it is full of trees and many little birds. The food is delicious, they have a different menu, I was traveling with my daughter and she enjoyed it. The only horrible thing that happened to me when I arrived at the hotel, they couldn't find the check in and that was when I showed the payment and the confirmation number. It was horrible. I waited 1 hour and nobody knew anything. My aunt, who was the one who did everything in the USA, called hotels.com and they called me and the charge and everything appeared, but at the hotel nothing, very disorganized, terrible. If you bring a girl, they ask for the birth certificate to enter. El lugar es como lo describen en la pagina, se siente como en casa y la vista desde el balcon es bellisimo puedes ver el amanecer, las piscinas y esta lleno de arboles y muchos pajaritos. La comida es deliciosa tienen un menu diferente, yo viajaba con mi hija y ella lo disfruto. Lo unico horrible que me paso cuando llegue al hotel no encontraban el check in y eso yo mostrando el pago, e lnumero de confirmacion fue horrible fue 1 hora esperando y nadie sabia nada, mi tia que fue la que hizo todo en USA llamo a hotels.com y ellos me llamaron y aparecia el cobro y todo, pero en el hotel nada muy desorganizados terrible. Si llevas una nina te piden la partida de nacimiento para entrar.

Staying in Irotama has always been fun, the recreation is excellent, the service and cleanliness are very good. The food in the restaurants, however, was not good enough for the price they charge, which is very high. The buses need to be fixed because the air conditioning does not work well and the bar in the room was empty. There is a minimarket, but it is really very poor.

To many mosquitoes, only one restaurant with air conditioning, the prices they charge are very high/expensive for the hotel and the amenities they offer, the restaurant prices are very high/expensive , the beach is not private, it belongs to the entire town, including dogs. I will not stay at this hotel no more and will not recommend it to no one.

6/10 Good

Unfortunately the beach was closed on my stay there and when I asked why they didn’t advertise so I wouldn’t stay there, I was given a lame excuse(not worth mentioning). This is a resort so a beach matters. Next I checked in at the main building then when I was at my building I had to do the check in all over again. Why twice I don’t know but it is a long slow process. Then they asked me to pay. I already paid and showed my receipt but they still didn’t believe me. So it took even longer and many calls before they realized I did pay. Room was beautiful but so hot and humid. It took a while for it to cool down once the air conditioning was fixed. They did that quickly I must admit Buffet breakfast was ok. 6 out of 10. My tower was on one end and the pools on the other end. Shuttle cart. English extremely limited.
