Pros:

el desayuno fue simple pero rico y el personal muy amable, la piscina la disfrutaron mucho mis hijos.

Cons:

Cuando llegue me hicieron un cobro de 318,58 dolares americanos donde debia ser en dolares canadienses y el valor que me cobro booking por la aplicacion era 207+ taxes canadienses, ya me debitaron de mi tarteta de credito el valor de 318,58 y aun no he recibido la devolucion del dinero y la diferencia del valor de los dolares en pesos canadienses. Necesito de su ayuda para que me hagan la devolución de mi dinero. Gracias
