The hotel facility where great, check before booking if there is an event host..... No parking spaces for the guest where save, we had to park our car in a wherehouse at the end of the main cargo área, we were guess...... so many tráfic in the públic área that we could not even find a space to seat and have a drinks, we order room service which was 5 start service, we want it to have dinner in one of the Restaurants but couldn't bevasue there where so much people attending the event that the noise was unberiable. The day after was another hotel. The event was over and we could enjoy the peace and the áreas at it should be. I believe the hotel adm should and can plammed better for Spaces taht guest that are the one to stay have more accomodation. Overall 3 start stay
