Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
Office staff was rude; they seemed bothered when we requested any kind of assistance. The refrigerator in our room was making a loud noise all the time, and at night it was very hard to get some rest. They did not offer decaffeinated coffee. However, housekeeping staff was super nice, Maria smiled and said hello as soon as she saw us coming. I will not be staying in this hotel again, I do not recommend.
