    We arrived early but Robert at the front desk did some checking and we were able to check into our room right away (thank you Robert!!) Very nice room and really comfortable beds. Pool area was beautiful and the grill/bar at the pool very tasty.

    I agree that the client should contact the GM of the Barcelo directly. I think that the hotel charged a nominal amount to cover incidentals but they should have confirmed at the time of booking.
