Me parece muy bien para su precio Lo bueno - agua caliente en buena cantidad - tv por cable - aire acondicionado silencioso - personal amable - instalaciones nuevas - el sector es seguro ( hay un cuartel de policía cerca) Lo malo - encontré 2 grillos en mi habitación - las sabanas y toallas tenían mal olor y parecían sucias Nota.- como sugerencia .pueden mejorar el servicio poniendo un planchador en el cuarto, Una caja de seguridad y una nevera pequeña
