Zentral gelegenes Hotel

Das Hotel ist sehr gut gelegen. Das Personal ist sehr nett und hilfsbereit. Leider sind die Fenster absolut nicht dicht, was dazu führt, dass man den Strassenlärm als sehr störend empfindet.

Great stay for Tren del Hielo

Super noisy room on the street side. Bathroom not so clean and stains on the bed cover. Super friendly staff though and well situated near the train station. For a night to take the Tren del Hielo it‘s a bargain!

Not the luxury hotel they call themselves

To start, they had no record of our reservation. They did not give us the room we reserved, there was never anyone one in the lobby at the reservation desk to answer a question. Location was OK, but a long walk to the restaurant area of town.

Hôtel sympa et propre

rio bamba n'est pas une ville trop touristique A part la visite du volcan et le petit train qui y mène. En cette saison (mars) c'est uniquement le we au départ de rio bamba. Sinon il faut prendre un taxi. L'hôtel est très propre et bien aménagé peut être un lampe de chevet et des crochets pur les vêtements?
