When I made the reservation for the RIU, the ad said adults only and all inclusive. What they didn’t say was, the adults wer averaging 20-35 years old, and “all inclusive” meant all the alcohol you can pour down your throat. They even had a bar open 24/7, and in your room, they had a rack of 4 bottles, and you help yourself; no extra charge.
The hotel echoed everywhere, and people were screaming all day and night. I have no problem with people having a good time, just let me know up front and give me a chance to decide whether it’s for me or not.
All inclusive means food also, the food was mediocre at best, and mainly fed to you via buffet.
The first problem I had was, they gave me the wrong room, and they had the correct room in my reservation. When I asked the woman, Betty, at the front desk to change it for me, I got an attitude, and I had to vacate my room, and they wouldn’t let me into the new room until 3pm. Mind you I had prepaid my stay, the new room was ready by 10am, and it was only 2 rooms down from me. I will say, the staff I worked with were very accommodating, such as housekeeping and wait staff in the 2 restaurants I ate in. I’ve been going to Mexico for years, and had great times wherever I stayed.
I won’t go to another RIU hotel again. It was expensive $308 per night, and not worth it.
I felt like I was in one big frat house, that’s not why I go on vacation.
