La verdad la estancia fue amena, estuve hospedado en época de carnaval y siempre fueron muy amables y atentos conmigo. Es un hotel económico, familiar y con una excelente ubicación cerca del malecón. La habitación que me tocó tenía ventilador y aire acondicionado. La cama fue cómoda y estaba amplia. Solo me hubiera gustado que el baño tuviera una cortina larga que topé hasta el piso o alguna puertita corrediza. Pero sin duda recomiendo el hotel.
