Pros:

La habitación era muy grande y estaba muy bien. También es verdad que pagamos muchísimo dinero, ya que toda la ciudad estaba muy cara y no teníamos más opciones.
El desayuno lo pagamos aparte y era muy completo.

Cons:

Pagamos muchísimo dinero por esta reserva, y aun así, no nos dejaron hacer el check-in hasta las 20:30 de la noche. Dijeron que así lo habíamos reservado. Nosotros no reservamos eso en ningún momento, al menos esa información no constaba en la página de reserva, así que nos la colaron. De todas formas, es una barbaridad tener que esperar hasta las 21 de la noche para poder entrar en tu habitación incluso habiendo pagado el dineral que pagamos.

It was fine, bit expensive for what it is though
Pros:

A nice central location and comfortable bed

Cons:

The rooms could definitely be updated for the price. The bathrooms are in dire need of renovating. The showers leak all over the floor.
