The room was nice and clean, air condition was working perfectly, the hotel is in a great location , one block away from everything also not as loud as the main attractions area. Walking distance to the Ado Bus station and the beach, overall it was a pleasant stay for me.

The room was not as shown or described. Rusted shower pipes with rust coming out with water when started. Leaking bathroom sink and water pipes. Only ready it wasn’t completely terrible was because the beds were clean.

Excellent location, right in the action, a block to 5th ave and tons of restaurants and bars. Only a few rooms in the hotel have been renovated to look like the pictures, mine was not, looked like it was renovated in 1970, but it was clean, no mold, no bugs. Bed was firm but comfortable, smart tv and good A/C. Big issue for me was no mini fridge. Ivan the manager was awesome, very helpful and kind. Come to party or bring earplugs, the nightclub next door gets going around 1130pm and runs until 6am, fortunately they don’t have big bass subs so earplugs actually work

Estuvo muy limpia la habitación y el servicio pero no me aceptaron 2 tarjetas de crédito diferentes, no si es por no aceptar el cargo con tarjeta o no le querían dar solución a su terminal.

Excelente trato siempre muy amables!
Excelente ubicación, a un costado de un estacionamiento público
A una cuadra de la quinta avenida
La habitación muy bien
Comida oxxos farmacia todo a la mano
El único detalle fue que está enseguida de un hostal y es un poco ruidoso pero nada que no se pueda tolerar
Recomiendo totalmente este hotel
