    does the new section have ocean view? what floor and room would you recommend? Is the ground floor noisy?

    • @HenrySetGo
      @HenrySetGo  Год назад

      I stayed in the tower, so I’m not able to tell you about the new section. The views from the higher floors of the tower are great and I’d suggest those. One minor drawback is that it can sometimes take a while to wait for the elevators.

    Thanks for sharing all this info! My husband and I are going here for our Honeymoon next month! (Mid-March) I wanted to ask about the open air bus. I tried looking to see if it was something I could book on their website, but information is a little limited there. Is this something you have to physically book once you’re there? We were thinking we’d take that night trip into town our first day so we could scope out where we wanted to go when we do decide to go into town later in the week! Do you remember what time that night tour ran? Thanks! 👏🏻

      The whole of the Malecón is worth seeing and you can do it if you have the time, but the southern stretch near the Monumento al Pescador seems to have the most activity. And yes - I’d consider it safe.
