All good except no fridge in room, no paper nor pen to write. No English tv channels for American guests but all of them were in Spanish. Door lock did not function well so we had to change to other room. I was not able to be assigned to rooms in higher floors so I got to stay in a room on first floor without any view not front nor back view. Not much happy staying in this hotel. Only I am happy with coffee and breakfast served. Thanks anyway!
