Positivo: Los chicos de servicio son muy atentos. Excelemtes ellos. Buena ubicación respecto a rutas de buses. Negativo/para que mejoren: en cocina vasos y platos plásticos, esto tiende a ser menos higienico que otros materiales como vidrio o loza. Redes de internet deficientes. Cobran adicional por algunas cosas como toallas (en otros hostales donde me cobraron más barato por noche, nunca me cobrarin por cosas así)

Buenos dias disculpa pero estaba sucia la colcha y la sabana tenia pelos. No habia rollo en el baño. Estaba usado que mal onda con eso. Considero que estoy pagando un servicio. En la mañana no habia agua caliente. Ojo requiere mayor capacitacion del personal.

El lugar está muy céntrico y permite moverte a cualquier parte. Eso sí, por las noches la calle está muy sola. El servicio de wifi fallaba. Las personas de la recepción me atendieron muy bien

El lugar es muy pintoresco tiene una muy bonita decoracion, durante mi estancia el lugar siempre se mantuvo limpio en especial los baños, tal vez ayuda que tienen muchos y por eso no se saturan tanto como en otros lugares
