We were very happy during our 5 days at Smart Hotel. The location is excellent. Staff was very helpful, although their English was not great. The credenza in our room worked well for my laptop. The stationary bike in the workout room gave me a good workout, although one foot stirrup was broken and the power meter read much lower than my actual power output. The room had a dedicated AC unit. I loved the memory foam style pillows.

Hola,me he hospedado en este hotel muchas en muchas oportunidades por años. En esta oportunidad el seńor Juan y Ayelen me recibieron ese día,Mi reserva como lo hago siempre fue un cuarto Deluxe,donde se pueden hospedar 3 personas claramente está en la descripción,mi reservación decía 1 viajero ya que fui yo la única en volar de Miami USA,mis familiares me esperaban justo afuera del hotel ese día,lo cual sumábamos 3 personas. Juan y Atelen súper agresivos y mal hablados,una clara actitud despreciante hacia mí,me cobraron extra por cada uno de ellos,siendo que ya había pagado esa habitación por 3,dejó claro que es la más costoso de todas,después de la de balcón,aprovechando la oportunidad quisieron sacar dinero extra conmigo,les expliqué y mostré mi reserva del cuarto Deluxe,pero no funcionó y debí pagar ese dinero extra, Imagino que ellos se lo quedaron para su uso personal. Me sentí muy incómoda al ver como me despojaban de mi dinero sin razón, Me exigieron pagar esa diferencia,que si no abonada esa cantidad perdía mi reserva, es una habitación costosa más de USD100 x noche,así que aboné y me alojé, Definitivamente no me quedaré más en esa hotel. Les comenté lo que sucedió a todas las personas que he recomendado para alojarse que ya no regresen ahí. Como supervisoras de operaciones de hoteles en USA,yo les recomiendo aprender de la profesión de hoteleria, hospitalidad,compromiso y lealtad, Plus-Costumer service- ojalá lleguen a ser buenos empleados/no malos despedidos.

Clean, comfortable room and welcoming reception staff. Good breakfast. The only downside was the street noise all night long. Earplugs are beneficial for a good night's sleep.

AC was comfortable. Room was nice but there was a lot of street noise. The streets around the hotel became desolate at night and unsavory characters tend to walk around the area. The staff was generally friendly.
