Perdida de parte del equipaje.
Pros:

La Ubicación sobre todo y el ambiente Californiano.

Cons:

Lo que menos nos gustó, fue la irresponsabilidad del personal de recepción a la hora de custodiar nuestro equipaje en consigna, dado que nos perdieron dos bolsas una con comida otra con suvenirs, por todo ello hemos solicitado formalmente al hotel una indemnización.

Pros:

Die Lage war super! In 2 Minuten kommt man bis zum Pier

Cons:

Es gab eine sehr kleine Rezeption. Frühstück war nicht inbegriffen, für diesen Preis hätte man wenigstens das Frühstück im Preis offerieren können.
