Pros:

Definitely you get what you pay for.....

Cons:

The room smelled weird and was missing a microwave and coffee maker. No breakfast and the area wasn't very good. People were asking for money and walking around the place all night didn't really feel safe and the door was missing the security latch....

Pros:

Looks good from outside.

Cons:

The room was hot and stunk on arrival. Lobby was locked during complimentary breakfasts, check in (to be expected as we arrived quite late) and check out. Wasp nest in window when we arrived. Sink leaked but they gave us an extra trash can to collect the water.

Buena experiencia.
Pros:

Todo estuvo muy bien. La habitación estaba limpia y la ubicación es excelente, muy cerca de la Base Militar.

Como sugerencia, en el futuro podrían incorporar una cafetera en la habitación u ofrecer café en el lobby durante la mañana.

En general, tuvimos una muy buena experiencia.
