The bathroom needed updating, toilet was running, shower fixtures shown visible rust, sink soap dispenser became unglued. TV didn’t have channels available upon arrival, and there was no tv remote. Room service menu needs updating. Food was not as advertised. No shuttle service for different destinations around the property, it was quite a walk from Riu party back to main lobby.
