admirable stay in historical heart

complimentary snacksrooftop terracesmall room
i noted the hotel offered complimentary bottled water and snacks in the lobby, a nice touch. the rooftop terrace featured amazing views of the nearby cathedral, very beautiful. i appreciated the breakfast, it included custom omelets and local fruits. the reception employees were really friendly and helpful with all my questions.
my room was quite small, it barely fit the bed. there was no room for luggage, it was a slight inconvenience. i think more space would greatly improve the stay.

The room had unlimited free bottled water and snacks. Those were restocked daily. The location was superb. A short walk led to the Aztec ruins. I saw the Aztec Temple ruins through a glass floor in the lobby. It was an extra bonus (a very interesting one!).
The street felt deserted at night. I didn't feel very safe.

The location was excellent , close to major attractions. My room was clean and modern. The hotel provided complimentary water, tea, and coffee in the lounge area.
The double room I booked was in the older part of the hotel. I waited quite a while for the slow lifts. The tap in my bathroom wouldn't stop dripping.

tv systemchannel list
The tv system was quite bothersome. I found navigating the numerous spanish channels annoying (as if i magically understood). finding the few english channels proved difficult. accessing cbs news resulted in constant interruptions, requiring me to download some obscure app. this seems a bit much for a hotel in this day and age, doesn't it? i think a simple channel list would be helpful.
