Todo excelenet

El hotel super limpio y las habitaciones con camas super comodas. Lo unico fue que una de las empleadas encargadas del desayuno nos falto el respeto diciendo que para nosotros no habia desayuno y nos dejo de ultimos para servirnos el desayuno. Parecia tener algo en contra de nosotros. Los empleados deberian ser mas respetuosos con los huespedes. Si la señora tenia un problema no debio pagarlo con nosotros
