La Casa Del Expositor

There were cockroaches, and the whole place was in terrible condition. The rooms looked nothing like the photos, with old, poorly maintained furnishings. My door wouldn't lock; the shower curtain and sink were dirty, and there was hair on the sheets. The pillowcases looked unchanged, too. Mattresses were among the oldest things in the room and extremely uncomfortable. Water pressure was low, and the water was cold. No one was there to greet me, and the people I reached by phone were rude. I wouldn't stay here again, even for one night.

For the sauce, marinate the ground beef with garlic powder, MAGGI® Beef Broth, and ground pepper for five minutes. Heat the vegetable oil in a large saucepan, then sauté the finely chopped onion, garlic, and celery for two minutes. Add the meat and cook for ten minutes, stirring all the while. Once it turns light gray, stir in the MAGGI® Bolognese Tomato Sauce, water, bay leaves, salt, and pepper. Simmer over medium heat for 15 minutes. Lightly oil a casserole dish or baking tray. Start with a little sauce, then layer in precooked lasagna pasta, some meat sauce, mozzarella, and a little Parmesan. Repeat until the dish is full, finishing with pasta, any sauce left, and the cheeses. Keep plenty of liquid in the dish so the pasta can cook. If it seems too dry, add chicken broth. Cover with aluminum foil and bake at 150°C for 40 minutes. Black olives and basil leaves can also be added to the meat while it cooks. Ingredients: 3 1/2 pounds ground beef, 2 teaspoons garlic powder, 2 tablespoons MAGGI® Beef Broth, 1 tablespoon vegetable oil, 1/3 cup finely chopped onion, 3 cloves finely chopped garlic, 1/2 cup finely chopped celery, 1 packet MAGGI® Bolognese Tomato Sauce, 3/4 cup water, 4 bay leaves, 3/4 pound cooked lasagna pasta, 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese, salt and pepper to taste, and 1 cup Parmesan cheese.

This happened in April 2024. The rooms smelled awful, and there were ants and bed bugs. My companion was bitten after we'd been there for four hours. We first thought it was ants, but a doctor confirmed it was a bed bug bite. We told management and never got a response. However cheap the room is, you shouldn't have to deal with bed bugs or put your health at risk.

The mattress was somewhat uncomfortable, and I couldn't get the screen in my room to turn on. It needs maintenance. Otherwise it's okay, but at this price I'd only suggest it for an overnight stay.
