This place is quite a distance away from the airport as well as from the centre of town. Although Carlos our hoast said he will pick us up from the airport but when came out of the airport, we couldn't find him. So we asked a guy who was arranging the taxis to call Carlos number but a person on the other end pretended as Carlos and told us to take a taxi instead.

The first time was a good experience and a good price including also an efficient airport pick up. The second time was not that positive. The price was unjustifiably higher, no one picked us up from the airport and we had to call and wait. Then late at night, when going to bed, we discovered the bed sheets were dirty with hair (probably not changed). They offered to change them but it was already very late. Positive side they were very responsive. So overall a...
