I really enjoyed my stay here, mostly due to the wonderful team. The accomodation is brandnew and really nice, it just gets hot during the day (no AC but fan) . The hours were mostly stuck to, but I sometimes worked a full week with no days off. I didn't like the shortterm planning, sometimes I only got my schedule the night before and wasn't included in the process. While I like the whole team a lot, the owner can be difficult to work with. She is pretty controlling and even watching us over camera while she was on vacation, which created a weird and surveilled work atmosphere for me.

Todo el personal del hotel es muy afable y servicial, buscaron hacernos sentir como en casa desde el día uno, siempre con una constante preocupación de que tuviésemos una buena estadía. El trabajo nos dio la oportunidad de aprender muchísimo y al mismo tiempo disfrutar el tiempo libre. Muchísimas gracias a Dylan, Brandon, Anita, Madelyne y Germán por todo, nos vamos muy felices:)🩷🩷🩷
