HOWARD JOHNSON HOTEL D MARCO PALENQUE

In the room there were small ants, in the morning I had been bitten by several, it was not a good stay, it is a somewhat old hotel, perhaps for a short stay of a day.

Maravilloso. The pool is wonderful, with hammocks, sun loungers, chairs.... the common areas invite relaxation and transmit peace. The restaurant very good, the quality , very commensurate price. Very good location. Lovely staff and impeccable cleanliness

Mixed. The hotel is ok. At first impressions looks good. Lovely pool. Best one of all the hotels we had during our two week tour. Water slide not working but a decent sized decent depth pool. Much enjoyed. Think I swam three times during two night stay. Especially enjoyed my 6-30am dip. Food in the restaurant was pretty awful and the service appalling. Of our table of six. One meal arrived promptly. One five minutes later. Ours half an hour later. And two at the table were still waiting as we got up to leave. The hotel is not in a good area to eat elsewhere. It’s a long walk by a very busy noisy main road. Poorly lit and uneven pavements So. An 8 minute walk took us to local supermarket. The next evening. A cold cooked chicken between us. Bought a knife. Bag of salad tomatoes and blueberries. Followed by a cake. Was our picnic supper in our room. Far better than trying the restaurant again on the second night. Air con good. Bathroom nice. The area is extremely hot and humid Room was ok. Balcony tiny and only looked onto a hedge. But room was quiet. Rooms overlooking the pool had much nicer balconies. Some from our tour group were lucky enough to get them but restaurant could not cope with over 30 BRITS all eating in. As no other choice without long walk hence I’d describe my review as mixed Breakfast was good
