Cons-a Towel rack was about to fall out of the wall, wall plugs in some areas could not get to. Pros- towals where available for the beach, and the pizza they serve at the pool where great, 4 min walk to beach and the area was great, Manuel Antonio park tour is a must, it is beautiful and all different animals where incredible, but the best was the employees at the hotel where awesome.
