Pros:

The staff was in general quite helpful. The worst part was a strong chemical perfume smell in my room that was unbearable and that lasted through the night and the morning. It was most unpleasant. The reception let me cancel the second night at this hotel so I could find another place to sleep that night, which I appreciated. They said the strong cleaning products responsible for the smell were important to keep the place sanitary. I could not bear it, but it seems others were less bothered by it. The trees and plants seemed less well cared for, and the hotel was on a busy street that caused noise at times.

Pros:

Really loved the property, the room and the excellent location in Belen. A little unimpressed by the lack of hot water facilities in the room and that we ended up using an alternate open room just to take showers. Breakfast was excellent as was everyone on the service team.

Pros:

We only were here for less than a full day but the staff took good care of us and even packed us a sandwich, fruit and coffee for our early morning trip. Great communication and their shuttle was a life saver.

Don't expect too much, but at least its decent
Pros:

This is a decent hotel. It's connected to a very good restaurant. The hotel rooms are definitely old and dated and a smelly. But they were relatively clean and sufficient for an overnight stay.

Nice location close to the airport. Friendly and helpful staff, a good restaurant, and a grocery store across the street. It can be loud because of the area, but I brought earbuds and it was fine.
