    Yep, Even in November, I sat at the lobby bar for an hour or so a couple of times and NEVER saw anyone use those big elevators. I would surely ask for some sort of compensation!!!

    This post really makes a lot of sense. We were really amazed at how fast GOV went to 100% occupancy. I'm just guessing, but I would say its based on the Number of refurbished rooms, not the total # of rooms in the whole resort.

    Our first time at TTR, the first room they put us in had shit in the toilet when we walked in,literally. Not the best first impression. Things did improve from there so hopefully your experience will too.

    Very true of a 20 or so visits to temp in cabo and cancun. Maybe been three times when the room was perfect and didn't have to get something fixed.

    It's Mexico Kind of expected.

    This room is nice, this is what we were expecting. Our room is nothing like this. I will post pics when we return, I do not have the cable with me to hook the camera up to the computer.

    I used my webcam to take some pics for you all to see what I mean, check my profile Idk how to post them here. It could be worse, and I have had worse elsewhere, but its not what was advertised and its not what everyone else seems to be getting and posting pics off either. I am not saying don't go here, it isn't bad as far as everything else goes, but just be aware those pretty pics of rooms are not what everyone is getting. I got a killer headache, I think I am having mt. dew withdrawal, so I am just relaxing in the room now, gotta rest up to party some tonight. Pool is dead. Still no boobie sightings ( my balcony overlooks pool and beach). Anyone know where I can get a mt dew in this town?

    Ugh...I've been in Super 8's that were nicer than that! If they want to put you there, they should be offering a discount.

    Seen mentioned on other posts, ,,,The Spice rooms are just the regular rooms that have been renovated.

    So if you dont pay for the Spice room you may get one of the older rooms.


    That said , that is not a 4 Star Resort room
