Pros. Location
Cons. Wifi is not included in hotel rate and can only be purchased in person at the front desk. Guest cannot eat poolside and must eat in designated eating areas far from the pool. Room smelled like cigarette smoke and floor was dirty. Lastly, only one pool was heated. Larger swimming pool with slide for kids was not heated. We vacation every year during the holidays in Mazatlan, we will never stay at an El Cid hotel again.
Pros. First time we've ever stayed here, or in any 'All-inclusive' type stay. The food was very very good, the staff did their best to make our stay a memorable one. The staff always seems to be fixing, cleaning, arranging, or just looking over the entire complex. It was so fun exploring all of the many pool areas, restaurants, and hide-a-ways throughout the property. We only left to go on a City Tour, which was a lot of fun, and to walk the beach and to check out the calle in front of the hotel. It's so fun to not have to worry about how much any of the food or drink costs; you simply belly up to the bar and place your order! What fun!
Cons. One of the main problems we had with El Cid was the lack of modern Wi-Fi! I mean, any where these days should have fast *free* and reliable Wi-Fi. I couldn't believe that they wanted $10 an hour(!) for a single device. In this day and age, this is unacceptable! Since I refused to pay for that I can't say how fast or reliable the Wi-Fi was. I had to burn up my own phone data. They do have two computers in the lobby to use but the keyboards are cheap, old, and in sad condition. Come on El Cid, step up to the 21st century!
Pros. I loved the location of the hotel. Right on the beach and loved that 3 of the el cid hotels are on the same property so many pools to choose from. Right next to señor frogs which has open bar on Wednesday and Friday which is so fun!
Cons. Very loud. Under construction?? Can hear everything.
Pros. The staff is their biggest asset for sure.
Cons. Well the loud speaker for the pool activities was a little overboard.
