Bueno pero podría ser muchísimo mejor!!
Pros:

El desayuno bueno ... Sería mejor si ponen jugo natural pensando que tienen contacto en Santa cruz...

Cons:

Que el aire acondicionado estaba pésimo ... Me cambiaron de habitación dos veces ... Me resfríe mal!!!
La verdad que solucionaron tanto económicamente como buscando alternativa pero mal ahi!!! Esas habitaciones cuando pasa eso no deberían entregar !!

BUENA EXPERIENCIA DENTRO DEL HOTEL 9 DE 10 "cumple"
Pros:

todas las personas fueron muy amables y respetuosas, lo recomiendo, el servicio de desayuno muy bueno, LA CALIDAD DE LOS ALIMENTOS UN 100%

Cons:

lo malos es el ambiente cerca del hotel, pero se puede transitar si uno anda atento a su alrededor, EL ESTACIONAMIENTO NO ETA EN EL MISMO HOTEL, ESO SI ME DESAGRADO, aunque está muy cerca como a 400 metros, uno debe salir del hotel para dejar o retirar el automóvil
