Nice rest north of Tena

Decent hotel, rooms a little dated in some aspects, but perfectly fine with a nice pool and breakfast! Good secured parking area available! Easy access from the Troncal Amazónica!

La habitación estuvo limpia, la TV estaba dañada, el agua caliente de la ducha no estuvo muy caliente, la puerta del baño no cerraba fácilmente, había un olor un poco feo en la habitación y creó que por eso estaba la ventana abierta cuando entramos por primera vez a la habitación, el desayuno estuvo bueno, el personal atento y el parqueadero es en el hotel y es seguro.
