Reviews based on Food
The staff here are all friendly. Nice rooms, beautiful pool and the food is delicious. Elizabeth at Guest Services is the best. She took the time to assist me. She was very courteous.
The staff was very helpful and attentive. They even sang happy birthday to my lady without being asked. My room was excellent and came back and had snacks waiting for me. that was great too. I didn't find it very expensive. food in the restaurant was good and priced well. the location seemed convenient to points of interest. The Casino was decent, and there was a Friday's Restaurant next door (I didnt go there). easy drive from airport too. very mice experience. If I go back to Santiago thats where Im staying
