Some do not have it and I asked beforehand so I was prepared. Other than that, loved it, and would definitely stay again.

"If you’re from US or Europe, this is a three star hotel at best. This is not a criticism. It is what I expected and the staff is excellent and it is clean; it just is not the Marriott. They have been renovating parts of the Hotel, which is warranted, especially with the influx of some modern hotels, but my overall experience is good to excellent overall. This hotel would thrive more, if Limón itself was not lacking in nightlife.. Four stars overall."
