Three night stay in private room

We stayed for three nights in a private room. Private room with en-suite was a good size and air con worked well.The hostel was well looked after and the staff were really helpful. The bed was not that comfortable and made a really loud noise with even the smallest movement. The place was being cleaned constantly, the only thing was that there was a stain on the sheets. Great location only five minutes walk to everything.

El hospedaje nos gusto mucho, cuenta con muchos servicios, como con cocina, gym, alberca, terraza, desayuno, entre otros. El colchon estaba un poco duro pero el general noa gusto mucho el lugar. Es importante resaltar la amabilidad del personal y su buen trato! Nos encanto!
