Un lugar agradable para pasar unos días en familia. Esta cercas de la plaza y eso es super padre. Tiene lugar de estacionamiento para coches y eso ahorra uno tiempo de estar buscando donde dejar el vehículo seguro. Recomendando al 100!

Cercano al centro de Talpa. Habitaciones cómodas. Tiene oportunidad de mejora en los baños que son pequeños y no cuentan con extractor de aire. Las habitaciones cuentan con ventilador de techo, la iluminación puede mejorar ya que es baja. Cuenta con WiFi, pero se requiere un repetidor para las zonas más lejanas. La atención es muy amable.

La señora de la recepción es muy amable, el hotel está muy lindo y en una excelente ubicación, el agua no está tan caliente pero con el calor que hace en Talpa no hace falta que esté muy caliente el agua (hablo por mi) el único detalle fue que mi familia y yo queríamos descansar un rato en la tarde ya que había sido un viaje largo, pero había algunos niños corriendo por los pasillos y tocando las puertas. Obviamente ellos ya no tienen nada que ver ahí si no los papás. Pero lo comento para si alguien ve mi comentario y tenga hijos tome esto en cuenta. Muchas gracias

La administradora es muy amable. La vdd es que para descansar una noche esta bien. Más cuando llegas súper cansado. Se escucha mucho ruido todo el tiempo, algunas habitaciones están remodeladas. Muy buen manejo de clientes aún con alta demanda. Si necesitas más toallas te las proporcionan sin problema. La habitación cuenta con tv por cable, baño con regadera, espacio para colgar ropa, un pequeño tocador y un buró. No cuenta con teléfono en la habitación.
