El Hotel está en muy buena ubicación, está muy cerca del centro y lo mejor es que está a precios muy accesibles. Mi habitación era amplia para 6 personas, incluso dentro de la habitación podrían poner una mesa más amplia y una pequeña sala porque de verdad que la habitación es muy amplia. El baño es pequeño pero cumple su objetivo. Lo malo fue que me tocó cerca de la recepcion y escuchaba mucho el timbre . Pero aún así disfrute de mi instancia. El estacionamiento es amplio y de fácil acceso. Es buen lugar para quedarse. Feliz descanso
