Hotel perfecto para asistir a un evento o trabajo en la entidades cercanas, no para turismo
Pros:

Es un hotel muy lindo y comodo, las habitaciones estan muy bien, buen aire acondicionado. El servicio de restaurante es bueno, el personal es demasiado amable! muy agradecida

Cons:

La zona no me pareció segura, salí a comprar agua y los puentes que conectan con las tiendas no son seguros hay muchos habitantes de calle y recicladores, entonces genera percepción de inseguridad porque no te paran de mirar. Conclusión fue mas seguro cruzar por la avenida de los carros que el puente. No me atreví a caminar mas allá de 1 cuadra del hotel porque no se siente seguro. Fui a un evento al frente, solo sali para eso, de resto preferí no salir,
