Decepcionada total
Pros:

Lo único que me gustó del alojamiento fue el personal,su amabilidad

Cons:

El alojamiento la verdad en pésimas condiciones,la cama se hace un pozo al acostarse súper incomoda. La ducha hace falta cambiar,tuve que sostenerla yo para poder ducharme por que se cae. Las toallas con manchas . La verdad para el precio cobrado decepcionada de la habitación dada .

No creo que regrese
Pros:

Ubicación y parking cerca

Cons:

Muebles con polvo, colchón se undia.
Por un error mío al reservar lo hice sin desayuno, cuando bajamos a desayunar la Sra que atendía nos los hizo saber a los gritos, se enteró todo el hotel. Mucha falta de tacto al tratar al cliente. Nos sentimos súper incómodos, igual desayunamos y pagamos pero fue de muy mal gusto ser tan poco discreta
