We were charged 800mil cop, $200usd for laundering services on about 15 kg of clothes washed and dried. What a rip off. The clothes were supposed to be ironed but they were not, 200 dollars to wash and dry a bag of clothes is outrageous. We have had better experience at near by hotels and will not be staying here again.
