"ショッピングモールの中にあり、場所は少しわかりずらいですが、警備の人が常に在住し、安心して過ごせました。少し歩けば、マーケトやスーパーなどもあり、観光にも便利な場所にあります。レストランはありますが、ビールが置いていなかったので、ビールが置いてあるお店を尋ねると、何軒かスタッフが一緒についてきてくれお店を巡り、探してくれました。いつもレセプションのスタッフや警備の人はフレンドリーで、滞在中困らないように手助けしてくれました。ただ、原因はスタフもわからなかったようですが、２日の滞在のうち1日は、夜からずっとWi-Fiが繋がらないなかったのが、残念でした。"

"Nuestra segunda vez hospedándonos en este hotel. Es muy conveniente por su proximidad al aeropuerto y su shuttle gratuita. El hotel está bien es limpio y las personas que trabajan allí son demasiado atentas. Lo recomiendo y volvería a hospedarme en este hotel."
