CORDILLERA HOTEL

CORDILLERA HOTEL

10/10 Excellent
"I had a very pleasant say! Staff was very courteous and helpful. The neighbourhood is quiet, clean and there is a police station 100m away so I felt very safe during my visit. The only thing I would say is that the walls were quite thin especially around the bathroom so you could hear the street dogs barking outside at night and other guests showering & talking when you were in there. Overall, it’s one of the best options in the area."
