"Well I don’t have any words to describe this place. Everything was just great. From the time we arrived till the end. All the restaurants were amazing, the staff were very friendly and helpful, the room was so nice . I wish I could give much more than five stars. The only thing that was not done for us, even I wrote to them and the day we arrived I told front desk staff about our 40th anniversary, the hotel didn’t do anything special for us. But I still give them five stars and surely will back again. Thank you RIo."
