Perfect location, somewhat lacking comfort
Pros:

Perfect location at the end of central avenue, close to all the museums yet calm. Nice patio, fast wifi, kitchen is more or less equipped for simple cooking. Clean.

Cons:

Not enough light in the living room (they should just use stronger bulbs), living room is separated from patio not by wall but by semi-transparent curtains, high fee for luggage storage. Cleaning was done not every day.

Seguro y acogedor
Pros:

El trato desde el primer contacto con Yorleny de recepción ( lamento haber olvidado los nombres de las otras damas y el caballero pero todos fueron muy amables). Y la habitación era justo lo que necesitaba y demasiado lindo. Además del lindo jardín en el centro del edificio. El personal de limpieza y mantenimiento también se nota que hacen un excelente trabajo.

Accesible y confortable
Pros:

Es un lugar super tranquilo, limpio, el personal muy amable y atento. A pesar de encontrarse en un lugar muy céntrico, puntos extra, no hay ruido dentro de las instalaciones, más bien hay un patio que armoniza muy bien el lugar.

Cons:

De verdad no tenemos queja.
