Wildlife Oasis with Attentive Staff

convenient shuttleattentive staffamazing wildlifecertain refurbishment
I enjoyed the convenient hotel shuttle service to town and the park. The staff was attentive and friendly, particularly at breakfast. I observed a sloth with her baby in a tree near my balcony. I also frequently spotted monkeys and toucans on the hotel. The animal life was amazing.
I noticed the hotel could use some refurbishment in certain areas, especially given its rating.

All staff were very helpful and polite, which met our expectations. Pool areas were kept clean.
The wifi was not good. The network cut regularly. For a 5 stars hotel, the wifi quality should be better. The hotel rooms felt very old. They seemed from the 90s. It is a shame.
