"The hotel is amazing. I am not going back because we depend in the flight hours and hour flight was at 5:30pm, so we need to do a late check out and we try to negotiate with the hotel to deliver the rooms and just continue in the installations and they said that is not possible. We can just stay at the lobby without meals or drinks. They want to charge around $50 USD per person if we want to eat or drink. Flight hours are not in our hands. They should be more flexible.
