What was supposed to be an amazing trip was sadly affected by food poisoning and other unfortunate events. I have been to Mexico, specifically the Playa del Carmen area many times but this was the worst by far. This was supposed to be a very happy and romantic trip as my fiancé had just proposed however on the third day we got terrible food poisoning. This was extremely upsetting as I had spent hours reviewing what I thought was an excellent hotel that was well maintained. From here things only got worse for us. Our room lock was not working and would always flash red when we tried to enter our room. Despite multiple attempts to change key cards and asking for help, no one did anything to fix our situation. Pair this with an upset stomach and needing to get into your room in a hurry and you truly have a nightmare. Not to mention, my finance and I were both so sick and unable to get our own water, we kindly asked staff to bring us some and they refused. My fiancé then attempted to make his way to the front desk to get us water but puked the entire way and had to turn back. We are very upset with our experience and the lack of care from the some of the staff. With that being said, Daniel from the front desk was awesome when we had the privilege of being assisted by him.
