Chiaki Ikawa

En general el viaje fue bueno. Pero por ejemplo, no me han avisado el cambio que hubo en horario y me enteré porque yo llamé por teléfono, de ahí cualquier cosa confirmé por teléfono. Menos mal que siempre me contestaron. El hotel fue un hotel bonito pero nos asignaron de una cama en lugar de doble. Yo viajé con mi hijo y normalmente dormimos en dos camas separadas.
