Nos gustó mucho el hotel, las habitaciones amplias, muy limpias y todo el personal muy amables. Recomendamos que pongan un restaurante aunque sea con un menú pequeño. El único pero es que las camas no están muy cómodas, espero las logren cambiar.

Está ubicado en un barrio no tan lindo, las instalaciones viejas y descuidadas, la habitación descuidada y en intramos una araña enorme que ni los del hotel querían matarla, el colchón parece de cartón y el ventilador no daba aire debido a la altura que estaba. Definitivamente no recomiendo el hotel

La propiedad bien, sin embargo está a 5 cuadras del centro y la zona es muy popular, no insegura pero no es el centro histórico, no le invierten en báscios como pañuelos desechables, ganchos de ropa, ganchos para toallas, aunque los accesorios de aseo son finos els falta eso, no ofrecen servicio de bebidas ni alimentos aunque tienen un lugar agradable frente a la alberca, personal amable, estacionamiento limitado pero gratuito, pdorán tener mas servicios.
