Falta incrementar la señal de wifi, estaría excelente que pusieran musica en el bar o en los pasillos ya que estábamos mi esposa y yo y todo estaba demasiado silenicoso.

The gate keeper makes you feel you are obligated to tip for any minor thing he does for you. They dont have a receptionist 24/7. The gate keepers sleep in the lobby. At 730am you hear the staff talking and making all kinds of noise.

Un deleite para el cuerpo y el alma.

Es una hacienda con siglos de historia. Pero adaptada, restaurada y mejorada para disfrutar de una estadía muy placentera. Disfrutamos mucho de las habitaciones con su estilo rustico, cómodas. Disfrutamos de los jardines, los recorridos, lugares para fotos por todos lados, el spa, la comida, pero sobre todo la calidez y atención de las personas que laboran en ese lugar.
