Frustrante
Cons:

La intención era descansar, comer y disfrutar de la piscina y resulta que la piscina estaba fuera de servicio y lo notificaron en una nota enviada a las habitaciones al final de la tarde y ya nada se pudo hacer más que desayunar, devolvernos a la habitación y esperar el check out

Great Hotel in the heart of the city
Pros:

Great value! Beds were very comfortable and the breakfast was superb. Try the Americano with milk and the croissants with Nutella! Make sure you tell the spa lady to turn on the sauna for you ahead of time!

Friendly and professional lounge bartender
Pros:

We had a wonderful experience at the Executive Lounge, thanks to the old gentleman with glasses bartender. He was incredibly warm, friendly, and attentive throughout our visit.

He made us a Margarita Mojito that was absolutely delicious—one of the best drinks we’ve had during our stay. His excellent service and genuine hospitality made us feel welcome and happy every time we visited the lounge.

Thank you for making our stay even more enjoyable. We will definitely be happy to come back again and look forward to seeing him on our next visit!
