We paid for 2 nights at the property but when we got there, the administration said we do not have a reservation and that we need to pay again. Extremely terrible experience. Will not recommend at all.

Acactus Hotel
It is a very nice hotel. The staff was friendly and helpful. My one concern was with the restaurant. The presentation of the food and the taste was wonderful, but it took a very long time to receive our food and our whole party of 3 was not served at the same time at dinner. I am sure that will improve with time. Breakfast was much more timely and very good.
