Hotel Bh Bicentenario
Everything is good except there is no air conditioning in the room , it’s a little too hot. We checked out at the early morning, they opened the breakfast at 7:00, we cannot have any food at the morning. Hopefully they could offer a breakfast bag for those people who have to leave early.
