Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities

Staff were not helpful. The hot water was turned off. We had to ask them to turn off the hot water tank serving the two rooms we had booked. After a week of travelling we had dirty clothes needing to be laundered. The receptionist said the laundry would be ready the afternoon the day after we arrive. But when we returned the next afternoon the laundry had not be sent out. As for amenities and condition of the room. The shower was dirty and did not drain properly. The hotel has closed is bar and restaurant, although it is too far to walk into town for a meal, The taxi service recommended by the hotel was very slow. What a lousy hotel!

Hotel de los 90's

En términos generales el hotel es cómodo para estar de paso, tiene muchos servicios y es limpio y cuidado, pero sus instalaciones son algo viejas. Se siente como un hotel de los 90's. Aunque el personal fue muy amable
