Buen Hotel con buena ubicación pero viejo

Definitivamente ésto NO es un Hotel 4 estrellas. Lo habrá sido cuando se inaguró pero ya está muy lejano a éso. Hoy día es 3 1/2 y le estoy dando ésa puntuación porque el área de la piscina es muy bonito, la entrada y el lobby también pero las habitaciones necesitan modernizarlas. Las camas son duras, las sábanas y colchas no son confortables. No hay mini -bar y peor aún no tienen una neverita pequeña en la habitación para guardar y enfriar agua, refrescos (soda) y bebidas. No obstante la habitación premium es GRANDE. En el lado positivo el desayuno que está incluido es muy rico. También te regalan diariamente botellas de agua para tomar las cuales dejan en la habitación. Durante mi estadía siempre estuvo lleno lo cual le hizo tener muy buen ambiente. En mi opinión muy personal la administración del Hotel (Gerencia y/o Dueños) tienen que invertir dinero para poner el Hotel en condiciones óptimas, moderni, confortable y más bonito.
