The service was ok in general, in spite of minor shortcomings, in particular poor hot water in the bathroom at night. However, the most relevant issue in general was that I was charged twice for taxes when paying online with Expedia: the original price for 4 nights included taxes, but when looking at the final price for the room that I booked I was charged again with taxes!!! Please, check this issue! Thanks.

What a disappointment

It was a pity our stay in this hotel. We had stayed a long time ago and never had an issue here. However, this time the staff was not welcoming, incredibly rude and did not understand a sensitive situation regarding my niece, who is a minor.

De las 2 habitaciones que ocupé, ninguna tuvo agua caliente, con el temporal de esos días hizo falta, el teléfono no sirve, no me dieron un control de clima y no se podía apagar en forma manual, una lámpara no hay foco, el servicio en el restaurante un poco lento habiendo escasos comensales...!!! Yo no vuelvo a hospedarme ahí...!!!
