Overall good place to stay. I did have to wait after my check in time to be given a key to my room due to them running late. I would also recommend opting out the breakfast buffet as it not worth what they charge for it, instead you should venture outside of the hotel to find better breakfast food En general, fue un buen lugar para quedarme. Tuve que esperar un poco después de la hora del check-in porque iban retrasados con las habitaciones. También recomiendo no pagar por el desayuno buffet, no vale lo que cobran. Mejor sal del hotel y busca algo más rico afuera.
