8.2/10 Very Good! (42 reviews)

Great staff and service. Very convenient location. Air conditioning works great and the breakfast is surprisingly good. Only issue I see is the bathroom has a weird layout but overall, great stay thanks to the friendly staff.

8.8/10 Excellent! (680 reviews)

Staff was amazing! Very accommodating when we arrived early for checkin. Let us store luggage. Also there’s a beautiful rooftop! The room was clean and looked just like the photos. There wasn’t great air circulation in the shower but the water pressure was great.

8.2/10 Very Good! (138 reviews)

El lugar es muy bonito, ahora la propiedad está algo descuidada, se observa poco mantenimiento en el mobiliario cercano a la piscina o la terraza y la refrigeradora. Y en cuanto apoyo por medio del chat del app de expedía es nulo, el personal del lugar no atiende por el app, sino solicita que se llame a recepción en horario donde está disponible la recepción, en mi estadía tuve un inconveniente que me costó contactar alguien que me apoyara, finalmente se solventó y fue esperando al personal de la recepción. Ahora el lugar cuenta con una cocina, si en caso no se desea cocinar hay un restaurante que lo sugiero si se bebe alcohol es rápido ahora si es por comida tener paciencia para esperar.
