I did not like this hotel. Pros were a nice park across the street and walkable ( a long walk) to grocery and restaurants. Cons were no plce to sit, unable to use pool because they rented pool for private parties and breakfast was terrible. No choice. Just hard boiled eggs mashed potatoes and coffee. Would NOT recommend.

Reemplazar los muebles y puerta, se notan algo anticuados y suelen hacer mucho ruido aunque no se ejerza mayor fuerza. Por lo demás todo está bien, relación calidad precio es aceptable.

El hotel esta bien ubicado habitacion limpia recepcionista super simpático. Lo unico punto que necesita mejorar es el desayuno nada de variedad el dia que fuimos no pude comer nada era un guiso de cerdo con purée de yautia. Mejor ponga cosa mas sencillo pan huevo y queso o salami pero eso le gusta a mas clientes
