Recomendable
Un hotel sin lujos pero que cumple con lo esperado por la relación precio/calidad. Cama cómoda, desayuno bastante variado, estacionamiento incluído en el precio (es en el 5to piso de un parking ubicado a la vuelta del hotel por la misma manzana, es cerrado y con vigilancia las 24 horas, un poco reducido el espacio para maniobrar, si es un vehículo largo, cómo una SUV hay que tener mucho cuidado de no tocar las esquinas y rayar).

Appearance is misleading...
Although the location was great, the room was kinda small with just a small desk and basically the place to put your luggage. Luckily, I was there only for a few days (two) so, had not much to handle.

Aceptable para una noche.
El checkin fue rápido. El personal amable. La habitación presentaba signos de desgaste y poco mantenimiento. Las sábanas presentaban signos de vejez al igual que las toallas que casi tenían huecos. La ducha tenía un caño roto que hacía que el agua saliera hacia la parte del lavabo y mojara todo el baño. No hay secador de cabello ni shampoo/acondicionador. La habitación tenía olor a humedad. La cama no era cómoda. El desayuno estuvo bien, había café, jugo, frutas, manteca, tortas, bizcochos y alguna cosa más. Para una noche estuvo bien. Estacionamiento incluido en el costo (es en otro lugar a media cuadra)

Very nice property, a little bit old, door was hard to close and lock, key to turn on the light was kind of broken, but nothing unsafe or big deal. You can not beat that price

Look for other options.
Old, worn out towels and bathroom mat, extremely poor breakfast, etc, etc. Stay away, there are many better hotels in the same area for just a little more money. The only good service was the cleaning service and ,sometimes, the front desk people.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
Really bad experience
I booked a room for two and then the hotel staff told me that it was only for one person. Room was extremely small and very uncomfortable the room was cold all night long because they had a window open in the bathroom. The cable system was on and off while watching movies or news impossible to follow up with anything
