Unzufrieden
Pros:

Nette Leute kennen gelernt

Cons:

Reinste abzocke
Gutes Konzept aber schlechte Umsetzung
Hab 70 Euro für ein kleines privatzimmer gezahlt, ich musste mich seitlich auf die Toilette setzten weil wenn ich mich normal hinsetzte drücken sich meine Kniee in die wand weil nicht genug Platz ist für die Beine ist. Habe dann nach meiner Beschwerde ein Upgrade bekommen zu einem besseren Zimmer, dort konnte ich richtig auf der Toilette sitzen aber der warm Wasser Hahn konnte nicht eingestellt werden und funktionierte nicht. In jedem Zimmer ein anderes Problem. Habe leider im Viajero in Panama auch sehr schlechte Erfahrungen gemacht.
Ich war wirklich sehr unzufrieden.
Bei einem Zimmer in dieser Preisklasse erwarte ich das alles stimmt. Nebenan im Hotel bekam man für 50€ ein super Zimmer mit guten Service und Frühstück.

EL PEOR HOTELUCHO DE MALA MUERTE
Pros:

MUYYYY PARECIDO A UNA CARCEL, LOS CATRES SON ESTILO EL CECOT DE BUKELE, SE FUE EL AGUA 2 VECES, LA PISCINA ES ANTIGIENICA A TODAS LUCES, EN MIS RECORRIDOS POR EL MUNDO, ES DE LOS PEORES HOSTALES DE MALA MUERTE QUE HE CONOCIDO, APARTE QUE SON DESCONSIDERADOS Y TOCA INSISTIR PARA QUE PRENDAN EL AIRE ACONDICIONADO, JAMAS LO RECOMENDARIA.

Cons:

EL ESTILO DE LAS CAMAS, ES ESTILO PRISION, PEQUEÑAS E INCOMODAS, SIN NINGUNA PRIVACIDAD, SEPARADAS SOLO POR DELGADAS DIVISIONES, USTED TODO EL TIEMPO ESCUCHA LA RESPIRACION DE LA OTRA PERSONA, ES DE LOS HOSTALES MAS MALITOS QUE HE ENCONTRADO, UN HOTELUCHO DE MALA MUERTE. JAMAS LO RECOMENDARIA, EN CAMBIO EXISTEN OTROS EN EL MISMO SECTOR, INCLUSO A PRECIOS MAS BAJOS, MUCHO MEJORES. DE 1 A 10 CALIFICO CERO
