Fiesta Americana Reforma
When I arrived around 1p.m. to check in they told me I could not. I later came back and there was a long line of over 20 people, It took over 1.5 hours just to check in. Needless to say, the staff was very rude and unprofessional. I was not expecting much after this process.
