Hostal
El lugar nones nada confortable, muy sucio, tuve que pagar el total del hospedaje pero sólo me quedé un día ya que no se puede dormir en ese lugar, pues solo te ponen un colchón en es suelo con una almohada y sábanas llenas de grasa, no se puede dormir porque el lugar está a espaldas de antros y bares con música a todo volumen, además de que en el espacio hay gente fumando.
