Pros:

The building is beautiful and the front desk was super polite and helpful.

Cons:

These wall to wall carpets though throughout the hotel give it a dirty feeling despite the fact that it might be clean. The rooms were very clean nonetheless.

SIMPLEMENTE ES EL HOTEL PERFECTO. ES COMO ESTAR EN CASA MARAVILLOSO!!
Pros:

Nos encantó desde la llegada, la chica de la recepción fue muy amable. Nos sentimos como en casa, el trato fue cálido y amable. La comida deliciosa. El servicio de BAR impecable. Los 2 mexicanos que atienden fueron simplemente agradables y amables. Incluso me ayudaron a llevar mis bebidas a la habitación ya tarde por la noche. El día de nuestra salida nos ayudaron a coordinar el servicio de un TAXI grande por que teníamos muchas maletas. TODO FUE PERFECTO!!
