En general por el costo está bien el hotel, agradable y el desayuno incluido cumple, el personal deja un poco que desear porque nos mandaron a un estacionamiento muy lejano siendo que tenían espacio para que dejáramos el carro en el estacionamiento del hotel que estaba justo al lado, fuera de eso todo bien.

Sin duda alguna recomendable, cuentan con check in con horario accesible, es muy rápido el proceso y el personal muy amable. El.costo es una tarifa muy accesible y supera por mucho la calidad del servicio con el que se te atiende. Volvería a hospedarme en este alojamiento.
