The shower is cold, the breakfast is poor and the room is noisy. Everything else is just adequate. All little things. The toilet paper holder is upside down. The roll falls off. Don't touch the desk, it will fall apart. No trim around the door. Peeling wall paper. Mismatched furniture. There's no attention to details. What are the things like that you can't see. I'm in my regular hotel now. It was full. I know why Hotel Dona Elvira had available rooms. Only use as a last resort.

The top four reasons I filtered were a fail . Said room was sound proof- my room was in the lobby literally. Said there was parking- none! Pool- very small and murky color. Breakfast- didn’t have items that were listed from the three dishes. Hot water had to be demanded
