Desepcionada, llegamos a la hora del check in y nos toco esperar 30 min a que llegue el dueño y nos atienda. Cuando nos enseña la habitacion, esta era en un cuarto en la cocina, era solo una cama en un espacio de 2x2 m , y sin baño privado (no era como lo que vimos en fotos y seleccionamos). No quisimos recibir ese cuanto, el señor nos lleva a otro donde igual no se parecia al reservado y no tenia baño privado. Por ultimo nos llevo a un cuarto por los matorrales para varias personas, con el famoso baño privado, sin embargo no era el cuarto reservado en fotografías. Por lo que le dijimos al dueño que no podíamos quedarnos en su hotel, porq no era lo que reservamos.

La comunicación con el Administrador Sr. Manuel Armendariz, fue constante, sin embargo al día siguiente cuando fui a hacer el pago total del hospedaje, el Administrador no me respeto las condiciones del pago, aunque le haya mostrado los mensajes, la cotización de Expedia NO ME RESPETO EL PRECIO INICIAL!!! De $40 dólares la noche por 3 noches y por una HABITACIÓN para 6 personas Me quiso cobrar $25 por persona !!! Y si no pagaba lo que él me pedía , tenía que desocupar las instalaciones....

Se encuentra alejado del ruido de la carretera, por lo que la estancia resultó ser bastante tranquila, además de la cercanía al río que le da un toque especial
