Buena ubicación
Pros:

La ubicación es muy buena. En el lobby hay una máquina para limpiar zapatos que fue de lo más novedoso. El desayuno es buffet con opciones limitadas pero estuvo muy bien.

Cons:

Es un alojamiento antiguo, aunque su lobby muy modernizado, no tienen relación frente a lo que uno encuentra al ingresar a la habitación.

Opción equilibrada para una visita corta a Loja
Pros:

La ubicación del hotel es excelente, en pleno centro de la ciudad lo cual facilita la movilidad dentro de la misma. Las habitaciones son amplias, contando con escritorio para poder laboral lo cual se agradece en los viajes de trabajo. El personal muy servicial. Cuenta con parking propio lo cual es favorable al encontrarse en pleno centro de la ciudad.

Cons:

El agua caliente demora un tanto en llegar a la ducha y con insuficiente temperatura, al menos en la habitación que tenía. El desayuno a pesar de las buenas opiniones, en lo personal me pareció normalito.

Pros:

El personal ayudó a mis padres a realizar su check in y check out y me mantuvieron informada de su estancia. Necesitaba ese apoyo ya que son personas mayores.
