The only thing I did not like is that I was charged double the price agreed upon this site. Thinking I found a good rate and what influenced my opinion on staying at this location. This should be against the law. Found this at around 80 with the member discount. Ended up paying 152. Will not stay here again. You should take them off your site.

Excellent location. Less than a half block away from plaza principal. The staff at the front desk were not very polite. Our check in time was 3pm, room was not ready. They stated it would be about another hour or so, and that they would call when room was ready. Never called. We went to have lunch and came back at 5pm but not sure when room actually became available.
