Over priced

Ants crawling all over the place. Location isn't amazing. Way over priced for what it is. Breakfast is basic. No hot water in shower. No sheet on the bed, only a blanket. But on a positive note. Staff were very friendly and helpful.

Ficamos em um bom quarto, porém o banheiro estava fedendo xixi. A equipe bacana. O que mais incomodou foi os próprios hóspedes com bateção de porta e a noite gritando atrapalhando nosso descanso.
