El hotel es bastante nuevo. Las habitaciones son pequeñas pero estan bien. La ubicacion es buena con todos los medios de transporte cerca. El personal de la recepcion es muy amable especialmente Nayara. El desayuno excelente y muy completo. Buena relacion precio-calidad. Deberian mejorar un poco la limpieza. La alfombra del ascensor estaba muy manchada y la limpieza de la habitacion deberia ser mas esmerada.
