Es un lugar muy sencillo, sin embargo la calidez de sus trabajadores lo hacen acogedor, lo que si les faltan frigobares x cada habitación, es muy importante que lo tomen en cuenta

La tele en mi habitación se veía pésimo y el wi-fi del hotel no llegaba más allá de recepción y alberca pero fue cómodo, la habitación estaba limpia y nadie te hace ruidos incómodos en pasillos o balcones

Reservamos con 1 mes de anticipación y al llegar le dieron nuestra habitación a turistas sin reserva. Intentaron enviarnos al hotel más cercano (con menos calidad), pero cobrando el mismo precio.
