My room was very cold. Mini split did not work, they brought an electric heater, we had to move ir around, shower very cold, breakfast very simple, lots and lots of stairs, elevator only works from certain floor up, you still have stairs, you leave a tag at door not to be bothered, they still do your room…….they don’t have wake up call or they forgot……

The staff was great. Everyone was kind, one employee went above and beyond. Ivan really help usually through our visit. He jumped in our car and helped navigate us to parking. He even carried my aunts purse back to the hotel. While we’re at the hotel he greeted us everyday and was always very kind and attentive with all that we needed. Thank you to el meson de las poetas.

Feliz estancia, el desayuno riquísimo, y el servicio excelente. Lo único a observar es la contaminación visual por tantos cuadros en las habitaciones y corredores no son necesarios un poco más minimalistas se ven mejor es mi punto de vista
