Estadía expres
Pros:

La ubicación del hotel es ideal para poder caminar en los alrededores, en general el lugar mantienen un buen aroma, la privacidad de ingresos y salidas. La habitacion adecuada a la necesidad. No presentó mayores quejas debido a que todo estuvo muy bueno.

Cons:

La habitación que seleccione no tenía la opción de abrir la ventana así que encerraba el calor pero tenían aire acondicionado que ayudaba a apaciguar el calor.(igualmente señalo que desconozco si en la descripción de la habitacion señalaba lo de la ventana debido a que no lo revise, así que pudo ver la posibilidad de que estaba indicado eso)

Old hotel near city with tasteful interior but poor breakfast
Pros:

The staff was super friendly. This is an old hotel, which once had some class and Grandeur. It has a tasteful furnishing.

Cons:

The best years are certainly behind this hotel. While the room maids are doing everything they can, the rooms lag long needed maintenance and a ground up cleaning.
The breakfast was not in the class of a 4 star hotel, but very basic, as in any other no star accommodation.

Pros:

La ubicación, muy cerca de una estación de metro. El espacio de la habitación fue cómodo.

Cons:

Creo que fue solo en nuestra habitación pero la ventana no tenía la cortina delgada (visillo), así que no pudimos disfrutar tanto la luz natural. También podrían tener agua de bienvenida, es un buen gesto en verano.

Esperaba más.
Pros:

Buena ubicación, estación U de Chile en la esquina. Sin embargo considero que el tener los mismos desayunos todos los días -fueron 7- no lo hacía muy grato. Además hubo un día en el que no hicieron la habitación y no dieron solución.

Cons:

Me he quedado 3 veces en el hotel. considero que el tener los mismos desayunos todos los días -fueron 7- no lo hacía muy grato. Además hubo un día en el que no hicieron la habitación y no dieron solución.
