Meh, not very good, but if you need a bed…

This place shouldn’t advertise that they have WiFi, I didn’t have any connectivity in my room. Parking lot was fine. AC was weak. Restaurant was good. Noise from party buses driving by late into the night on weekends. They didn’t reimburse my 2nd night stay even though they said if I went through the app they would reimburse me. It was bad enough that I only stayed 1 the first night & told them I was leaving within hours of checking in. It was very clean, I’m give their housekeeping staff that recognition.

La ubicación del hotel estaba bien. Pero ya cuando llegamos al cuarto, no nos gustó su ubicación pues este limita con una licorera, el volumen súper alto. Y así nadie ni trabaja ni descansa. En cuanto llegamos salimos a buscar otro hospedaje.
