Soggiorno confortevole
Pros:

Soggiorno breve ma perfetto, è bastato per apprezzare la qualità del servizio: staff gentilissimo e super attento. Camera spaziosa e pulita, con chicche come la scelta dei cuscini e set di cortesia completi.Colazione varia e abbondante, dal dolce al salato. Un'ottima scelta!

Buono, se non considerola colazione
Cons:

A colazione: scarsa disponibilità di verdure; i kiwi erano duri come pietre; la frutta in generale di scarsa qualità; rapporto generale qualità prezzo (€ 15) della colazione molto molto basso; perfetta per chi ama riempirsi di dolciumi, salumi e formaggi.
