Al hotel le falta actualizacion. Aunque no estaba lleno la noche de nuestra estadia nos asignaron dos habitaciones muy lejos de todo, parece que colindaba con un barrio muy ruidoso, ruido de motos toda la noche. Me querian cobrar mas a la llegada x algun suplemento. Los salva la excelente atencion de su perosnal de cocina y restaurante, se esforzaron por hacer nuestras comidas muy agradables.
