Pros:

La ubicación por distancia a mi trabajo

Cons:

La habitación tenía muchas cucarachas y grillos, deberían hacer mantenimiento de las cosas más a menudo, me cobraron un supuesto internet que nunca usé porque no sirve para nada fue la peor experiencia que e tenido en un hotel. Me salió picaduras de acaros en el cuerpo es por falta de higiene en los colchones

I would never book here again
Pros:

Nothing

Cons:

Nothing will never book here again. They canceled our room and I never received a canceled email from the hotel or booking. The hotel said they was booked and could not accommodate us. They said they don’t have to notify anyone .
