The BQ Aguamarina Boutique Hotel is well-situated, right across from the beach and close to great restaurants and shops. The rooftop pool is small but clean, and the bar up top is a nice bonus. The front desk staff were friendly and gave excellent recommendations for supper.
However, there were a few drawbacks that affected the overall experience. The room had an overpowering cleaning product smell on arrival that triggered my asthma. After airing it out by opening the windows and door, the smell did fade, but it made for an uncomfortable start.
We also had to request that the front desk mop the floors near the elevator, as both the elevator itself and the entrance area were covered in wet sand. This should have been addressed more proactively. Additionally, there’s no on-site parking, so guests need to find street parking nearby.
Overall, I’d rate this hotel as average, great location and friendly service, but some comfort and cleanliness issues that need more attention.
