Best Western Las Mercedes Airport
The rooms are old and deteriorated ! They refurbished the lobby and restaurant, but the rooms are the same I used more than 15 years ago. Poor quality and everything looks old. The AC looked and worked like 20 years old ! This is not a Four Stars Hotel at all ! I would give it 2 !
