Es mejorable

Reservé habitación con 3 camas pero solo había 2. El estado de la habitación no era el que esperaba ya que las paredes estaba con la pintura cayéndose, se supone que tenía una terraza pero estaba en mantenimiento. El costo me pareció alto pero es lo que había acordado. Por otro lado la ubicación si era perfecta, estaba a unos metros de la plaza de armas.
