La propiedad muy buena. Tiene un aspecto colonial. Los cuartos espaciosos y con aire acondicionado. Los alrededores son un poco descuidados pero eso no es culpa del hotel.

La estadía fue buena ya que la habitación estaba limpia, igual siempre llegábamos era prácticamente a dormir pero fue bueno llegar y encontrar un lugar bien con personal amable. No es la primera vez que me quedo aquí por comodidad y económia y porque el lugar está central de todo tipo de transporte para ir donde uno quiere, por estar ubicado en una zona de centro es un poco solo de noche pero nunca nadie se metió con nosotros.

Los recepcionistas excelentes, pero las instalaciones no eran como aparecían en las fotografías. Lo otro es que se metieron a mi habitacion si autorización ni información previa para hacer cambio de esta, ya que solicite ampliar mi estadía, lo cual encuentro fatal... Demuestra la poca seguridad del lugar, fueron órdenes del dueño y lo último es que se me realizó un doble cobro, desde mi tarjeta de crédito y según que a ellos no les aparecía el pago y para evitar conflictos volví a cancelar en efectivo. La habitacion a la que me cambiaron tenía un baño con una cortina llena de hongos por lo que higiene tampoco es lo recomendable
