La propiedad está bien estuve siete días aunque el jueves y viernes santo había muchísima gente y eso impedía conseguir reposeras pero en general el servicio los demás días muy bien

Rio Othon Palace
Hotel ok, but the room in the 10th floor was very noise as the window glas is not noise cancelling. The rooftop bar is great.
