Top Principal Hotel Reviews

NASS Central Garden

NASS Central Garden

8/10 Good
"The place is an old "casona" from beginning of 1900. It is well maintained for the age but the wooden floors make sounds everytime you walk, but are especially noticeable at night when it's less noisy around the city. The place was clean, the room we got was bigger than we were supposed to get and that was a plus. The free breakfast had eggs, ham, sausages, white bread that you can toast, small delicious sweet bread buns, butter, and raspberry jam. Also, they add different kinds of fruits like apple, bananas, watermelon, and papaya. For drinks the options are juice(orange, lulo, tree tomato, papaya or watermelon), water, hot water for tea(chamomile, anis or mint) and black coffee. The coffee was not good so lower your expectations. The mattresses at the rooms were either to hard or to soft, but they were ok for the price range we paid. My lower back herniate disc was complaining after the third day at the venue. There was always a person at the reception desk during normal business hours."
