Hôtel bien situé et bon marché.
Pros:

Situé en plein centre.
5 mn à pied de la plage.
Accueil 24/24h

Cons:

Literie un peu dure.
On ne peut pas jeter le papier toilette dans le wc, mais je me demande si ce n’est pas un peu pareil dans les autres hôtels du coin.

Pros:

La ambientación es muy buena y relajante,me agrado mucho que cuente con elevador y la zona cercana a la calle 38 y la playa

Cons:

Únicamente el baño, siento que le falta un poco más de ambientación ya que luce algo sencillo, y es entendible,pero si sería un punto a mejorar

Pros:

Localização muito boa. Bem na 5 avenida. Como pegamos um quarto mais para o fundo da pousada, não ouvimos nenhum barulho. Hotel custo benefício excelente. Para fazer os passeios e descansar de noite é perfeito. Tem tudo perto. Recomendo

Pros:

The location is good, and the “garden” is very pretty, and the air condition worked well.

Cons:

The room smelt moist despite the air condition, and the garden view was a joke! Maybe other rooms are better.
The included breakfast is misleading, you get a bit of fruit, two slices of toast, jam and a coffee. For everything else you have to pay extra, and the breakfast is in an expensive restaurant with small portions. If you look for a nice included breakfast go somewhere else.

Hotel bien ubicado pero habitaciones que necesitan mejoras
Pros:

La ubicación y personal amable

Cons:

Estuvimos cinco noches de las cuales cuatro no funcionó el ascensor. El bidet estaba roto y arreglado con silicona que daba mala imagen, la caja fuerte anticuada, las toallas de la habitación te las dan contadas, la limpieza del la repisa de cristal del baño no se hizo en toda la estancia ni tampoco nos cambiaron las sábanas en las cinco noches.
