Nos quedamos del 4/18 al 4/19 en el piso 10. El área donde está el cuarto no está nada bien, se ve viejo y descuidado. En Marzo el 2023 me quede 8 – 10 dias… la temperatura estaba alta y el cuarto sofocado. Llame a recepción y me dijeron que abrirá la ventana Este 2024 la temperatura estaba baja para poder tomar una ducha de una manera adecuadamente por la mañana. ¡La respuesta fue que el hotel no tiene la opción de cambiar de frio o calor!!!! Me manaron un calefactor pequeñito portátil… este funciono correctamente, pero esto es increíble para este hotel. Sobre todo, que eso no se nos hace saber al momento de hacer la reservación Por otro lado, el servicio es excelente y el desayuno de lo mejor.

Lovely view, terrible service
The room was uncomfortably warm. The A/C didn't work properly. The restaurant service was painfully slow. They messed up my order the first time and I had to send it back (and wait). After I finished eating, there were no servers to be found. I had wanted dessert, but after waiting for a server who could be bothered to serve, I decided to cut my losses and pay the check. There was no one around to pay, so I tracked down the manager, who seemed not to know how to operate the credit card machine. After he ran the card, he gave me a receipt and then thought there was a problem and wanted to charge me a second time. When I objected, he figured it out. I had had a long, tiring day and just wanted a quiet meal in the hotel restaurant, but the dining room was chaotic and noisy. It was a most unpleasant way to end the day.
