We were booked on this hotel. They claimed they were full and transferred us to a 4 star Exec Colon hotel nearby. It was not a four star. Hotel was very dated and had no AC. In the middle of the night we were sweating and asked for fans. They did provide fans but not the hotel
We signed up for.

The staff was very friendly. I made international calls and the property didn't charged me because it was for my family. That is so nice of them!!! The area felt safe for me during the day. I didn't go out out late at night but that's a general rule of thumb when you travel internationally. I like the area because there's many places to eat, many stores, and public transportation is nearby. The hotel is old and the amenities are outdated but that's it has it's own charm. If you are looking for modern hotel and amenities, this is not it. But you are out exploring places anyway and then come back for the night to rest and sleep this is it.
This was officially the first hotel I ever stayed in. Room was very run down, shower broken,WiFi only worked on the first floor, location is very convenient but not safe at all, especially for families with kids. No hairdryer in the room. When u came down to the reception to ask for the thirstier, they had 4 and all of them were unsafe to use. Only one power outlet worked in the room. I strongly suggest to stay away from this property as it is terrible inside and location is dangerous.
Las fotos son super engañosas. Esta en muy malas condiciones el hotel. Una enorme decepción

Estrutura bem antiga.
O Hotel tem as estruturas antigas, no geral é bem conservado, a localização é otima, achei as cortinas encardidas da poeira da rua.
Pelo que paguei esperava mais da hospedagem.
La propiedad necesita reparación , abres una ducha y a la hora sale el agua caliente, en los baños no hay secadoras de pelo, las cortinas llenas de huecos,no cierran, llegamos y nos dieron una habitación, que parecía una cárcel, hablé con la recepcionista y me dijo q si no me convenía (11:30 de la noche llegue) que tenía q llamar a Expidia, cuando me cambio para la habitación la cual había escogido yo y pagado, ya que en las fotos se veía fenomenal, Expidia ponía una habitación buena, es la q explico , había un frío, horrible, no te dicen, ni de calefacción, muy grosera, la q nos recibió esa noche , al otro día domingo fuimos a desayunar, no han visto en su vida un desayuno bueno, Todo frío, ni donde calentarse, Café Si a eso se le puede llamar café???
Sin embargo al otro día la rubia y la trigueña muy atentas las dos y el muchacho de la noche, el día antes de irnos nos dijeron sabían IDs que tenían desayuno aquí !!! Y le dijimos deben mejorarlo, ósea pagamos por algo q no consumimos,
Porque si sabia la recepción que teníamos una habitación mejor que a las que nos llevó no nos la dio desde el primer momento cuando íbamos a estar una semana allí???
Definitivamente expidia debe mejorar y ver lo que oferta, es la compañía q uso por muchos años y espero q analicen bien lo que venden,
Viajo y compro siempre a través de Expidia pero no dejo de reconocer que hay también otras muy buenas !! Espero que analicen bien lo que venden
Constrangedor eles não terem recebido meu pagamento pela Hoteis.com, quando cheguei no hotel a recepcionista tinha meus dados, tudo certinho, só não tinha o pagamento, tive que mostrar meu cartão pagamentos pra ela, ela registrou a informação e me deixou entrar.
O hotel é bem antigo, tem seu charme, depois que eu me acostumei com a charme, adorei!
Meu quarto foi excelente, chuveiro maravilhoso, ar condicionado bom, cama, travesseiro, roupas de cama cheirosas. A única coisa que eu não curti foi o tapete no quarto, acho valido colocar que tem carpete em alguns quartos.
A localização é muito boa, muito restaurantes ao redor, excelente custo beneficio. Voltarei e ficarei no mesmo hotel!
O empreendimento poderia ser resumido em" "não tem".
- não tem frigobar
- não tem wi-fi depois do segundo andar
- não tem estacionamento
- não tem água filtrada
- não tem louças, xícaras, etc
- não ten serviço de quarto com venda de produtos
- não tem um elevador moderno
- não tem tomada para estrangeiros
- não tem ar condicionado de qualidade
- não tem micro-ondas e nenhuma conveniência para dentro do quarto que mais
- não tem pilha nos controles
Só gostamos da localizaçao mesmo, e da cama. atendimento pessimo, cortinas do quarto suja, estado de conservaçao péssimo, cafe da manhã pouquissimas opçoes,
Es un hotel muy viejo, las fotos en la pagina no coinciden con el interior del hotel, lo unico bueno es que esta bien centrado pero el desayuno horrible y no llega el internet a las habitaciones.

O local é bom! O quarto tem um tamanho adequado, é confortável, mas a conservação do hotel deixa muito a desejar
