2/10 Terrible

Yuri

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort

Mala experiencia en estancia

El lugar tenía poca luz en la zona del Lobby, las instalaciones estaban sucias desordenadas y descuidadas, eso me dio desconfianza de las habitaciones, NO ARRIESGUE A MI FAMILIA…y tuvimos que salir de ahí inmediatamente….
