REALIDAD LAMENTABLE

Nuestra experiencia en este hotel fue mala, no sabian que nosotros ibamos a llegar por tanto nos toco esperar a que improvisaran alistar una habitacion que segun ofrecian tenia vista de la ciudad y lo que encontran¿mos al frente de la habitacion 103 fue los restos de una casa incendiada. Nos toco salir del hotel por la mala calidad, no habia agua caluiente tampoco y la cama sonaba apenas uno se sentaba, de verda que este tipo de hosteles como lo llaman no deberian ofrecer servicios que no van a cumplir.
