A difficult stay, made easier by the vigilant staff
Pros:

Staff went out of their way under difficult conditions. There had been riots within the city before our arrival.
Staff were very helpful. I take my hat off for the staff's resilience and they were they conducted themselves during this period.
Thank you guys!

Cons:

The airport shuttle did not come to he airport to pick us up as promised.
However security situation was volatile, so I can understand why staff could not risk it, because the taxi that we hired was attacked a few hundred yards from the hotel itself.
Really, the hotel had a challenging situation which was not of their making.
The next morning we did not have breakfast because kitchen staff did not come to work because of security.
once again staff showed determination by offering us food from a nearby restaurant.

Pros:

La verdad que nada

Cons:

El aire acondicionado hacía ruido durante toda la noche casi me lleve un susto pensando que alguien quería abrir la puerta del cuarto. Faltaban toallas, el agua caliente salía y de repente se ponía fría. Las sábanas dice mi hija y mi prima que olían mal.
