BLUESEA Callao Garden

My experience at this hotel raises serious concerns regarding minimum operating and safety standards. The building is in an advanced state of deterioration. There are areas where plaster is coming off, the finishes are visibly damaged, and the overall impression is that of a property that has not been properly maintained for years. The level of wear and neglect goes far beyond the idea of a “modest hotel” and enters the realm of failing to provide basic, decent accommodation conditions. In the room, the furniture was old and damaged, and cleanliness was severely lacking. The presence of cockroaches and ants is not merely unpleasant — it is unacceptable. The bathroom countertop was swollen from moisture and showed clear signs of mold. The doors appeared improvised and patched with panel pieces, which raises further concerns about safety and proper maintenance. Another problematic aspect is the pricing policy. Absolutely basic amenities are charged extra — including the TV remote control and the use of the safe. Practically every service is monetized separately, without the overall standard of the hotel justifying these additional costs. During the night, the room temperature was very low, making it impossible to rest properly. Ensuring a minimum level of thermal comfort should be a standard, not a luxury. Breakfast was below acceptable standards: limited options, poor organization, overcrowding, and a generally questionable level of hygiene. The dining area reflected the same lack of concern for quality. This is not about unrealistic expectations or excessive demands. It is about minimum standards of hygiene, safety, and decency. I believe this property should be seriously evaluated by the relevant authorities and by the platforms that promote it. I strongly advise caution to anyone considering a reservation here.

We were a group of 14 people, we arrived in 4 cars infront of the hotel, super tired after a long trip. In front of the hotel there are places where you can park and places where you cannot park marked with a yellow line or a "no parking" sign, then there are places where parking is not prohibited, the white lines are only lightly sprayed black, but still visible. Visible marking of parking spaces on the road and no other mandatory marking that would not allow us to park means that we can park there. The result was that our cars were towed away and we all received fines and towing fees totaling 1000 EUR. (4x200 EUR + 2x 95 EUR towing). When we went to ask at the reception where our cars were, they calmly said that it is common here that they are towed away. A simple solution would be to stick a sign or inscription on the walls of the hotel's front garden, where it would be absolutely clear at first glance that parking is not allowed there. This of course spoiled the first impression of the hotel for all of us and, frankly, the beginning of our holiday. Considering the dirty, poorly maintained rooms (the bathroom lamps are covered in some kind of brown slime) and the cockroaches and other bugs that are everywhere in the rooms, this hotel cannot be given more than one star. They never skimp on cleanliness! People who pay for cheaper hotels expect a clean place to sleep and bathroom, nothing extra is expected. The only thing that deserves a better rating in my opinion is the service behind the bar, the pre-mixed drinks are terribly sweet, but you can always order simple drinks like a cuba libre, but you get them in a plastic cup :D. Even in all inclusive, all activities are extra paid - billiards, tennis, etc. I have to recommend avoiding this hotel. The parking is not marked with a yellow line as you specify in the response! It is just about 3 metres next to the parking spots. And ofcourse you can do something about it, mark it with signs on the wall infront of your hotels front garden.. its very easy and cheap measure that will help your customers from ruining their holiday

Firstly , let me start with the rooms.. the doors would not open we had to use force to get them to even budge , the door handles were broken making it such a difficult task getting out of the room each day. Several plugs were broken and not working / charging anything which was such a disappointment. Lights in the room were also all broken , main light wasn't working so we had to use the smaller ones which yet again was unnecessary and inconvenient. Nights were very cold with little bedding so we had to really wrap up in Several layers of clothing. Secondly, the kitchen and food was very limited the food was repeated and not very fresh... to the point where I discovered mould in my turkey. Thank goodness I saw the mould before I ate the turkey. This is simply unacceptable ! Food standard and safety should be a bare minimum and not a luxury. The service with some of the waiting staff was very uninviting and cold, we would sit at tables and then they would come and tell us to get up and find a new seat and with each seat we found we would be moved again. I thought this was a joke especially after a long day we were tired and wanted to sit and enjoy our food. As waiting staff it would have been easier if they just allocated us seats instead of us having to play games. Overall , I would not recommend this for long stays and for any families with allergies, small children ect. But the view was lovely and walkable distances to town, bus stops and beaches.

Rooms were beautiful. Service was very nice, but at the restaurant if it wasn’t breakfast you were (at least me) treated like a pest. The location is amazing. Definitely not an area do single people. More for couples and retirees. Had to drive 30 minutes south to find singles. The views were breathtaking. The shower gave you enough pressure but wouldn’t stay warm long enough to get cleaned off. Spendy for the services you’re not receiving

First of all, I understand that price often reflects overall quality, so my expectations weren’t very high… But unfortunately, the stay still left a lot to be desired. Although the kitchens were well-equipped, there were no cleaning products, sponges, or cloths available to wash them, and all the glasses had a slight smell. We also found a cockroach in the bathroom, which was very unpleasant. One thing I really don’t understand: we were traveling as a group of 8. Six of us booked all-inclusive, and two were planning to upgrade on arrival. Because one of the six all-inclusive guests couldn’t make it, we kindly asked to simply update the name (the payment had already been made for the person who couldn’t come), so only one person would need to upgrade. The hotel wouldn’t lose anything, so it seemed like a win-win. But the lady at the reception refused, saying she didn’t trust us and believed the absent guest might still arrive. This was frustrating, especially as all payments had already been made upfront. It was also very cold at night, and a heater would have been useful. Electrical plugs were coming out of the walls, which is a serious safety concern. On the positive side, the location is good, and the rooms have nice, big balconies. The food was very average. Overall, I would say it’s acceptable for a short stay, but there’s no chance for returning.
