I would have liked this hotel just fine, except for the fact that when we went it was extremely hot and the airconditioning didnt really work at all.

Helpful staff when I asked questions. Overall very clean and modern. Weird bathtub door thing made it easy to drip water on the floor. Window didn't have good sound insulation but it wasn't the busiest street.

The room temperature was not satisfactory. Often it was very cold for 2 out of 4 days and required multiple attempts to address on both day 1 and 2 of stay. Outside of that, hotel is centrally located and in a safe area

I would recommend it is in the center of the city and everything that goes with that, but the staff was exceptional and the room was comfortable and basic, and very clean. I would stay there again.

Muy buena. Únicamente detalles, cómo las velas del jacuzzi sin pilas, no había espuma de baño, shampoo y acondicionador de mala calidad. Pero después el resto excelente
