Pros:

Tenía aire acondicionado, era cómodo

Cons:

No tenía ninguna ventana que dé al exterior, como así también para bañarse solo contaba con agua fría. cuando llegamos nos cobraron los impuestos por lo que subió el monto especificado en la página, luego de ellos conversamos y nos compensaron con dos días de desayuno por la diferencia

Bom custo benefício, mas na entrega conforto!
Pros:

Localização excelente!

Cons:

Não tem frigobar no quarto, sai pouca água do chuveiro e da pia. Na primeira vez que hospedamos ficamos em um quarto no fundo, o que foi bom pois minimizou o barulho na segunda vez ficamos em um quarto em frente à rua, MUITO barulho, inclusive das pessoas que ficavam conversam nos sofás em frente ao quarto bem cedo! E não tinha blackout na janela do quarto.
