Gran Hotel Nacional

I have visited this hotel for both business and pleasure for over fifty years. At the beginning it was THE hotel to visit or stay at in David. However, for this visit, 3 nights, it dropped. First, for a $60/night, I did not expect a great room. I did expect hot water, a place in the bathroom other than the sink to place my shaving kit and/or my wife's things. I did report the lack of hot water each morning with no result. Good thing we enjoy cold water showers! Lastly, as we were having dinner in one of the hoteI restaurants, found a very nice women's ring in the bottom of my wine glass as I finished my cup of red wine - wish I had asked for white wine. The staff was great, attentive and friendly. The room was clean but very small for two double beds and should have had a queen. Although disappointed with this visit, I hope it was a a mistake and not a sign of a slide downward.

Lack of hot water, finding a ring in my wine.

Convenient.

Need more towels in the bathroom.
