Tikal Futura Hotel & Convention Center
The 9th floor business center was wonderful, all the staff was wonderful. Love this hotel, wish they had more bathtubs or a private jacuzzi for upper floors but i love everything else. Best spa and great energy. My only complaint is the tea and coffee machine was removed from business center
