Zentral gelegenes Hotel
Das Hotel ist sehr gut gelegen. Das Personal ist sehr nett und hilfsbereit. Leider sind die Fenster absolut nicht dicht, was dazu führt, dass man den Strassenlärm als sehr störend empfindet.

Great stay for Tren del Hielo
Super noisy room on the street side. Bathroom not so clean and stains on the bed cover. Super friendly staff though and well situated near the train station.
For a night to take the Tren del Hielo it‘s a bargain!

Not the luxury hotel they call themselves
To start, they had no record of our reservation. They did not give us the room we reserved, there was never anyone one in the lobby at the reservation desk to answer a question. Location was OK, but a long walk to the restaurant area of town.

Hôtel sympa et propre
rio bamba n'est pas une ville trop touristique A part la visite du volcan et le petit train qui y mène.
En cette saison (mars) c'est uniquement le we au départ de rio bamba. Sinon il faut prendre un taxi. L'hôtel est très propre et bien aménagé peut être un lampe de chevet et des crochets pur les vêtements?

Terrible hotel
The walls were super thin and we could hear Our neighbors and everything from the lobby three floors down.
The shower was super bad and sprayed water everywhere and left an inch of water everywhere. It also made the room super damp.

Central location
Central location in older part of Riobamba, taxis plentiful, restaurants, street vendors plentiful. Street side rooms are noisy due to traffic, etc.

Core central
The building is not as impressive as the Booking photo but inside it's nice enough. Breakfast on the roof was competent.
Although they had a credit card machine they wanted cash.
