Hotel Villa Murano
Location is good, staff very professional and friendly. Property is clean but you can hear everything happening from dogs barking, people in the room next door talking on the phone, upstairs guests showering and just about every sound on property. Not one good night of sleep in a week.

Hotel Sombra del Agua
Clean room, comfortable bed. Housekeeping never came to clean our room. When we asked for clean towels we were told they would be back in an hour but never showed. We finally found a house keeper cart and grabbed a couple of towels. Breakfast was not very good.
