"It was awesome! One of the front desk guys Joon I think it was, was super helpful helping us send our luggage to our next stop. Beds super comfortable, housekeeping came every day to do a full clean and free water bottles, very similar to most American chains so I loved it! Asides from the grouchy receptionist the last night that told us that it was “dark hour” to go hang out to the 2nd floor that we did not know was a place to hang out since early morning you gotta pay to get in."

10/10 Excellent

"Espectacular el hotel, su edificación es muy nueva, con decoración moderna, sobria, luminosa y con esculturas muy llamativas hacen que te quedes observando cada rincón del lobby.
