Pros:

Me gustó la ubicación del lugar y la habitación.

Cons:

Que la cama se inclinaba, que el ventilador del cielo raso no se apaga a menos que se apague la luz, y que la ducha con agua caliente no se podía usar continuamente (el primero se baña con agua caliente y el próximo sin agua caliente).

UNA GRATA EXPERIENCIA
Pros:

La ubicación es magnífica, en el centro de todos los puntos de la ciudad frente al parque la Sabana, la recepción fue muy grata por parte de Alex, hasta el ultimo momento que me retire de las instalaciones, me ofreció su amable ayuda y fue muy cordial. Igualmente el resto del personal fue muy amable

Tricked by the advertising and photos, this is not a hotel.
Pros:

. The staff were friendly.

Cons:

It's a chinese restaurant with rooms upstairs. The whole place smells of food. Recepcion is hidden behind then stairs so at arrival it was a bit shocking.
Rooms were not hotel rooms they were not nice. We didn't have the breakfast as things were in jars and the food and utensils looked unhygienic.
Honestly not a nice experience.
