8/10 Good
"El hotel está aceptable, sin embargo, el funcionamiento es algo restringido y además hacen competencia desleal porque nos dijeron que si se reserva directamente con ellos hay otros beneficios que si se hace la reserva con otras plataformas y eso no me parece justo para el huésped porque igual se está pagando por un servicio"
