El lugar es acojedor, con un patio central relajante lleno de árboles, cuenta con parqueo, la habitación sencilla pero limpia y con buena presentación, hasta me ofrecieron cafecito en la tarde. Para quienes viajamos de paso o vamos por trabajo es una excelente opción, pregunten por la tarifa de viajero.
