Clean, tidy, and wonderful view of the plaza. Our room came with a balcony which is rare to see these days, especially when the room isn't a suite. The staff were helpful and friendly, and the lobby restaurant was great. Only complaint is the elevators, which were having some problems when we stayed causing two of three to go down, leaving only one operational. It wasn't a big deal for us, but it was an inconvenience for some people we met.

I don’t mind for small things like scratches or small specks of dirt on the wall. So I didn’t rate it as badly as other people. The lady who checked us in was kind of impatient but other than that the stay was fine. It was definitely beautiful and the walk to all the stores and restaurants was the best part. It was so convenient. The water pressure on the shower was amazing and we always got two bottles of water after they cleaned the room.
