It's a tragic place! Never go there! We couldn't sleep all night because of the noise from the other guests. For a moment I thought there was a fight. They don't accept credit cards at the reception either... the place is a motel in front of the beach. A flophouse. The service was absolutely catastrophic. We asked to be assigned to another room and they sent us to “Selina River”. That's when the worst came, the receptionist asked us in the most confrontational way “what's the problem?” When we told her about the excessive noise, Esmeralda's answer was “it's always been like this”, suggesting that it's normal to pay for a room to sleep in and not be able to sleep. The craziest part of the story was when Esmeralda called the person in charge to assign us another room and in the middle of the call, very deliberately put it on speakerphone and you can hear the person in charge saying “and if they don't like it, they can f@€& off”. The way everything was handled makes it crystal clear to me that this place has absolutely no idea what it means to provide a service. Es un lugar trágico! Nunca vayan allí! No pudimos dormir en toda la noche por el ruido que tenían los otros huéspedes. Por un momento llegué a pensar que había una trifulca. Tampoco aceptan tarjetas de crédito en la recepción… el lugar es un motel frente a la playa. Un antro. El servicio fue absolutamente catastrófico. Pedimos que nos asignaran a otra habitación y nos enviaron a “Selina River”. Allí llegó lo peor, la recepcionista nos pregunta de la manera más conflictiva “cuál es el problema?” Al hablarle del exceso de ruido, la respuesta de Esmeralda fue “siempre ha sido así”, sugiriendo que es de lo más normal pagar por una habitación para dormir y no poder dormir. El punto más delirante de la historia fue cuando esmeralda llamó a la persona encargada para asignarnos otra habitación y en medio de la llamada, muy a propósito la pone en altavoz y se escucha a la encargada decir “y si no les gusta, entonces que se vayan a la ver€&”. La forma en la que todo fue manejado me deja súper claro que en este lugar no tienen la más mínima idea de lo que es brindar un servicio.

STAY AWAY !!! WORSE place i ever stayed in. LOUD MUSIC ALL NIGHT LONG and also in the morning at the beach restaurant. 2 days without sleep. 1st night VERRY VERRY loud music at night until 3 am ..was impossible to sleep. The "rooms" are very close to the beach and they had these speaker blasting all night In the morning When I went to ask if they could control the music they told me they didn't control it since it came from the restaurant. Complete nonsense. 2nd night the same thing. So we packed up . When we went to the front desk to get at least our money back for the 3rd night. They just answered "sorry but nothing we can do" NO AMPATHY no trying to make us satisfied in any Way !! She said they notify people of the music so.. Where the hell is that Notice ?? Staying in a tent : verry humid. Nothing at all inside to put our stuff. No hangers inside or even outside. Showers ans bathrooms next to the tent are outdated and in big need of updating, often dirty. Beach amenities: almost none existent. Don't be fooled by the pictures. PLACE IS OUTDATED When you arrive they tell you you can use the chairs and parasol beachfront as you wish but they belong to the restaurant. The beach bathrooms are dirty, no working lights

¡Chinches! La higiene en este hotel es lamentable. Había restos de sangre en las sabanas, y al poco de estar en la cama notamos picaduras y había chinches por todas partes. Las picaduras me dieron alergia y estuve una semana en cuidados médicos. Nos cambiaron de habitación, pero esa noche llovió y entró agua en la habitación y nos destrozó la ropa y un computador. Se puede ir de fiesta pero jamas dormir ahí.

Bien pero falta de mantenimiento Casa vez que vamos a Venao nos quedamos en Selina por su ubicación, servicios y oferta gastronómica. Esta vez ninguno de esos elementos falló pero, la habitación si estaba bastante descuidada
