El hotel es muy conveniente y céntrico, la atención es muy buena por parte del personal. Lo que no me pareció, fue que Expidia me manejo información errónea, al pedirme un anticipo cuando hice la reservación y al llegar al hotel me mencionan que se paga la totalidad de manera directa y presencial

I booked on line and made a mistake on the date. I checked availability for the actual date i needed which was November 30 and they had vacancy which was over a month away from my departure date. I contacted them an hour later when i noticed my mistake and they would not give me a credit or refund. Poor customer service when it didnt cost them anything or have any loss on my account..
