Good, but don't deserve 5 stars
It's a nice hotel, with some facilities. Every day was full at breakfast and the pool. Although, the food was good and diverse. 4 stars it's enough, in my opinion.

Improve customer service
Let’s do plus points about RIU first and then I’ll explain the 3/5 I have RIU. The location is very central to bars , restaurants and shops . All is walking distance. We loved that we didn’t need to take taxis. Even Casco Viejo was approx 10 mins away. Room was nice and clean with great views of this amazing city at night. Breakfast at this hotel is a wonderful treat. Many choices of cooked foods every day. I must give special praise to Edison in the mornings at breakfast. A smile and warm welcome to me and my husband. Always attentive to our needs . I hope management will read how wonderful he was. Also a mention to Ronald and Mr. Anjer who was in black tie shirt and pants. Always so wonderful to us also. It was because of these three people in dining that made our experience at RIU a good one. This hotel could easily have gotten a 5 if the rest of the staff and reception people had been like Edison. No customer service polite cordial skills. Even housekeeping when we had a question would answer us with ‘yes’. How rude when we said hello to them. Maybe they could learn from our wonderful three friends in dining how to treat guests. Lastly, note, walls are thin. You can hear what goes on in room next door. Two nights I was awoken by loud snoring next door and had a bad nights sleep. Then there was the same couple another night and we didn’t need to hear their business . That was unpleasant. Improve your customer service skills. Even people who had to take luggage to rooms weren’t friendly.
