Paradise with a novice for customer relations.

Super back customer service. Owner of the place wanted to charge me more the half the price I paid for one night just because I didn't include my 2yr old on the reservation.

Buena opción

Escogí el estudio y obviamente al ser económico no es bonito, más q nada q el piso de la habitación está muy rayado y hace que se vea descuidado, pero vi las cabañas y están muy padres. La propiedad está prácticamente a lado de la nueva terminal de ADO. Los taxis al centro cobran solo $25 pesos.

Le concept nous a tout de suite attiré. Les photos nous fait pensé à un endroit calme, mais cela est complètement faux. En effet il se situe sur la route la plus passante jour et nuit de Bacalar. Ce lieu positionné sur un autre endroit serait merveilleux. Le personnel ne parle aucune autre langues que l'espagnol.

Love bacalar

Personale gentilissimo, tutto molto pulito e sostenibile. Tende bellissime con ventilatore dentro ma serve poco si sta molto bene la notte. Bagni molto belli e puliti. Posizione ottima per Bacalar, è vicino alla strada principale ma non è rumorosa se non ad eccezione di camion particolari. Esperienza molto bella, la consiglio.

La atención de las recepcionistas es buena, son amables, pero si quede decepcionada porque me quede en un remolque según dicen que yo lo escogí, pero no fue así, el remolque estaba pegado a la carretera y se escuchaba demasiado el ruido, casi no descansé. El glamping queda muy retirado del centro y de la laguna de Bacalar hay que usar taxi o caminar por lo menos unos 20 minutos o más.
