Users have shared that the staff is very friendly and the seats are comfortable and clean. However, there were some challenges with the booking system, as it led to confusion regarding time selection between noon and midnight.

Parhikuni Platinum Morelia Zihuatanejo recent customer reviews

Your booking system needs improving and should be based on a 24 hour clock. We booked 12:30 thinking it was noon but it was midnight. Very frustrating.
