Travelled with group
Disliked: Staff & service
La página me confirmó la reserva y al llegar al sitio estaba cerrado, me quedé una hora esperando información y salió una persona que me dijo que estaban en mantenimiento desde hace más de un mes que no podían alojar a nadie así que me tocó salir a buscar hotel a las 6:30 de la tarde.

No recomiendo ni al hotel ni a la página
En realidad no puedo calificar la estadía porque nunca me pude alojar. Luego de que hice la reserva y viajé hasta allá, el personal del hotel se negó a cobrarme el monto estipulado en la reserva, alegando que la página daba un precio total por persona y no incluía un "cargo adicional" por persona adicionales, por lo que desistí de alojarme ahí y tuve que buscar otro sitio por mis propios medios
