Back at Biwa!

This was my 2nd time staying here, and I really like the hotel and service. However, I was a little disappointed this time around. I specifically rebooked this hotel , not only because of the freat location, modernity of the rooms, and service, but also because of the refrigerator/mini kitchen area. It's extremely important thar I have a fridge to keep my beverages cold and to store leftover food. The fridge in this room did not get cold at all and I had to throw out my food. Also, the TV would not function and even the front desk girl couldn't get it working. However, the clerk spoke with the manager and they compensated us with courtesy bikea for the duration of our stay. I will definitely stay at BIWA again when i revisit!

The pool was very nice and calming but my favorite part of this hotel was that it was super affordable for a really nice two bedroom hotel! We did have some inconveniences with the smart stove but other than that, we were able to make ourselves at home in no time! We appreciate the staff for always assisting us and making sure our place was clean after a sandy day at the beach. I felt completely safe and enjoyed walking and exploring the TULUM Center every morning and nightclubs every night. I also enjoyed overlooking the local city through the balcony and really nice slide open doors.

Staff consistently went above and beyond ....

Get this. The hotel is brand new and gorgeous, and it was a bit noisy from street noise, so I discussed this with Harold the owner (great guy) and his amazing assistant manager Denise. They are going to replace the brand new windows with triple pane glass to totally eliminate any outside noise. We travel a lot and this is one of the most enjoyable experiences ever and the hotel is gorgeous. Tremendous attention to details.
