Reviewer Type: Couple
Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: The staff members are very kind. The breakfast was wonderful. The communication was prompt. I like the shuttle boat service. They arranged the Livingstone tour. On the way to Livingstone, the captain showed us around the Castillo de San Felipe. Cataratas (the hot spring) is 35 minutes away from the Rio Dulce downtown by collectivo bus.
Negative: The room was very hot in day time, even though there is a ceiling fan. However, after sunset, it cools down. The food at the restaurant was excellent.
