Quisiera dejar mi feedback sobre mi estadía en el hotel. Lamentablemente, el servicio no fue agradable y não recibí ningún tipo de soporte por parte del personal. El aire acondicionado no funcionaba correctamente y la limpieza de la habitación fue insuficiente. Además, se me cobraron tasas con valores que superan de forma exorbitante el monto de la reserva. Para completar, la habitación asignada era diferente de la que había reservado. Espero que estas observaciones ayuden a mejorar la experiencia de futuros huéspedes. Wi-Fi pésimo

A limpeza pecou um pouco, havia fios de cabelos nos ralos da pia e chuveiro, bem como no lençol da cama, com algumas sujeiras. Abaixo da cama estava muito sujo. Percebi quando precisei pegar meu tênis que foi para baixo. O vaso sanitário tinha marcas de fezes. E estava com problema hidráulico, o tempo inteiro pingando. Wifi muito ruim. Falhando constantemente.
