8/10 Good

"Very clean room and great staff"

Ibis Santa Cruz DE LA Sierra

10/10 Excellent

"Muy limpio, ambiente agradable muy bueno para viaje de negocios. La comida es excelente. Es un must comprar el servicio de desayuno es un buffet muy variado, sabroso y hacen cambios diariamente en el menú. Lo único que sugiero mejoren es la señal del wifi es muy inestable. Pero por lo demás muy bueno y buen valor por el dinero."
