Pros:

El estacionamiento es complicado, solamente te indican que no te estaciones fuera del hotel pero las opciones son limitadas. La entrada es autónoma pero había al menos 6 personas con problemas para acceder a su habitación.

Cons:

We paid for breakfast, and asked at 2pm if we could get it earlier as our plane was very early. They replied, saying that they needed to know how many persons we were, they were supposed to know that as we booked in advance. I replied 14 minutes after their reply, then no more reply. We paid for a service, didnt get it, and left with no refund and answer in this ghost hotel. Unacceptable !

Cómodo y cerca para explorar la ciudad
Pros:

Buena ubicación y espacio tranquilo para dormir.

Cons:

No teníamos desayuno incluido pero decidimos desayunar en el hotel por temas de itinerarios. Deberían permitir ver el desayuno antes de pagar.

My stay may have been better but these people have terrible staff who are unempathetic. I reached out for early check in
Pros:

It was well located not to bad a walking distance from the major sights

Cons:

The room was really small compared to the picture angles online. If you have bigger boxes those will be hard to navigate
