very bad experience
Pros:

room is good.

Cons:

I was locked inside the hotel overnight, which I discovered early in the morning when I went to check out. The reception was empty, there were no hotel staff anywhere in the building, and all the exit doors were locked. Nobody answered my phone calls. It was a very stressful morning, and I missed my bus because I couldn’t get out of the hotel.

Hotel cutre, desayuno pésimo y entraron en la habitación mientras estábamos dentro.
Pros:

Pocas cosas me gustaron

Cons:

No me gustó el desayuno, muy escaso y basico. El servicio de limpieza entró en la habitación pensando que habíamos abandonado el hotel porque eso dijeron en recepción. La ubicación es cercana al centro pero en zona conflictiva.

Aceptable pero podría mejorar
Pros:

Esta en buena ubicación del centro y paseo marítimo y parking

Cons:

Las camas son muy incómodas, las almohadas igual, la habitación tenia olor como a viejo , el lavado habían pelos en el suelo.. en las camas solo habia 1 colcha bastante fina para el fresco que aún hacía, pasamos un poco de frío, aparte que se escucha todo lo que hace el vecino de arriba...pero bueno solo fue una noche lo único bueno es la ubicación

Pésima
Pros:

Nada, no se lo recomendaría a nadie

Cons:

El baño estaba lleno de pelos, en la bañera en particular, había una alfombra tapando los agujeros de óxido que había, la cama malísima y las almohadas peor. Se siente todo lo que pasa en el pasillo y en las habitaciones de al lado. El desayuno súper cutre y sin personal a la vista. La chica de recepción ni los buenos días nos dio.
