Perfect location

The property was beautiful, right in the historic center of Puebla. Walking distance to a lot of shops, restaurants and churches. But I wish the beds were more comfortable.

El hotel es agradable y está bien ubicado, te ofrece meramente lo básico para su precio, su bufet de desayuno está rico, la atención de recepción fue buena,estaba limpio y agradable para ir a dormir esencialmente. Algo que encuentro curioso es limitar a un solo jabón por habituación mínimo 2! , recomendaría que pongan un perchero o de los de rueda pq solo hay un gancho para colgar un solo suéter Pero dentro de todo fue una agradable estancia

Muy amable la gente de recepción, siempre dispuestos a ayudar con cualquier duda, la habitación muy acogedora, estuvimos 2 noches, lo único que no me encantó es que me quedé en la habitación que da a la calle entonces había mucho ruido en la noche pero eso es totalmente independiente del hotel, gran ubicación, muy cerca del mercado de artesanías, del zócalo y de algunas plazas, me iba caminando a todos lados.

Todo bien, solo no respetaron la reserva diciendo que no tenían ninguna reservación por parte de hoteles.com y tuve que tomar otra habitación con diferencia de aproximadamente $ 400.00 más. Ya que era noche y no pude buscar otra alternativa. Piden credencial de elector, y se quedaron con mi licencia de manejo ya no me la regresaron. Todo lo demás bien

Excelente opción para estar en el centro de Puebla

Fue una estancia muy agradable, todas las personas de recepción fueron muy amables. Lo único que considero que se podría revisar es que el colchón rechina bastante ante cualquier movimiento.
