El hotel está muy bien, pero deben cuidar el tipo de personas que reciben para pasar el día. Hoy habían mujeres de mala reputación en la piscina y algunos clientes nos sentimos incómodos por el tipo de conversación sexual que ellas tenían.

El hotel es bonito, es limpio y esta en buen estado, el único problema que tuvimos es que la regadera no tiene tanta presión y tiene problemas para proporcionar agua caliente.
