Pros:

This hotel has great service and it’s clear there is a strong vision how it’s run. The garden is good for meetings and in the building there are enough places to sit for a meeting. Good bars and restaurants close by

Cons:

Shower is in the bad tub but other than that I can’t think of anything.

Pros:

Ubicación

Cons:

Llegamos a las 14h y no estaban listas las habitaciones... . Tuvimos que usar el baño de cortesía y no pudimos ducharnos hasta la tarde.

Colchón viejo y hundido, súper incómodo. Dormí realmente mal.
