Pros:

El lugar súper cómodo, limpio, acogedor, por lo general me gusta quedarme ahí, el desayuno estuvo rico, dos recepcionistas varones súper amables y atentos.

Cons:

En la mañana a la hora del check out había una mujer en la recepción poco amable y muy lejos de lo atentos que fueron sus compañeros.

Good value and great breakfast for city centre location on a budget
Pros:

Breakfast was excellent. Location was excellent. They kindly let us check in early and swapped our room to a nicer one when the first was fully prepped due to us arriving early.
