si vienes a visitar xalapa, un lugar agradable para hospedarte, tendras cerca plazas comerciales, restaurantes y lugares de esparcimiento
8.0
Un poco caro en relación al estado de las habitaciones pero pasable. Hay mucha discreción, es lo qué más puede rescatarse del lugar. No te encontrarás a personal en el pasillo ni a gente que te esté mirando entrar o salir, y la entrada trasera es bastante discreta y solitaria. Las habitaciones si necesitan una buena remodelación, pero están limpias y tienen lo esencial.
