Review from:

Flor Araceli Nava Ayala

En general todo muy bien. Solo en el último hospedaje Hotel posada el Hidalgo me pareció muy mala la atención, todo muy caro, la atención en el restaurante muy tardado y las habitaciones olían mal, con mucha humedad. El resto del viaje estuvo excelente y el trato de la gente maravilloso.
