And is so unfair pay for the parking when it should be included. ##### Cristian Stayed 1 night in May 2025 ### 4/10 Poor #### Samuel 3 Jul 2024 Disliked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The property had missing parts of it drywall, the mattresses we unbearable to sleep on, we had to buy foam to put on the mattresses and didn't get much sleep because it was so bad. The water took at least 20 minutes to warm up and the mini split air conditioner did not work well. I would never stay in this hotel again. ##### Samuel Stayed 5 nights in Jun 2024 ### 4/10 Poor #### Verified traveller 2 Feb 2024 Disliked: Staff & service, room comfort #### Unenjoyable stay For this budget price I just hope for clean and safe. However the room’s door handle was loose and barely locked, felt very insecure. Mattresses had plastic covering under sheets so very hot. Housekeeping did not service the room but took away all the towels (which were hung up, not on floor) and refused to replace them unless they were tipped. Fridge in room very noisy. Generally, the room and hotel smelled like mildew/mould. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Claudia 12 Mar 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service The A/C doesn't work ##### Claudia Stayed 3 nights in Mar 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Adrian 12 Mar 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Buena estancia Fue un viaje en familia, ocupamos varias habitaciones, en general todo estuvo como en la publicidad.
