Hotel Diamond Lima
Wyndham Costa Del Sol Lima Airport
Hice la reservación de este hotel, pensando que era el que estaba en el aeropuerto nuevo y resulta que no este está en otro lado así es que no me sirvió para nada. Lo quise cancelar y ni siquiera tuve la gentileza de comunicarse conmigo. Así es que perdí 100% lo que pagué. Tengan mucho cuidado

Very clean hotel. Staff was great. Would stay here again!! The rooms were a bit quaint but very clean. Breakfast was delicious but very little room to move around constantly bumping into people.
