Horrible Hotel

1.0

The worse experience, for 2.days requesting pillows for my bed and they never brought me a pillow, and the lobby close at 9pm and no way to communicate with no.body, they have a kiosk but it won't help at all, no way to communicate with the lobby personal also I request 48 hours in advance that I need two days instead of the 4 days and they refused to refund the last 2 days, I spoke with booking.com and they stated that it was the hotel decision to refund the cancellation

− Everything, no professional at all, not helpful staff at all
