Pros:

La ubicación

Cons:

No limpiaron la habitación ni el baño porque estaban los pijamas sobre la cama …esa fue la razón que nos dieron cuando reclamamos. El lugar del desayuno era muy pequeño y la modalidad de tener que solicitar al mozo era incómoda e implicaba tiempos de espera. No había lugares muy próximos para desayunar sobre todo con un clima hostil.
El hotel casi no tiene recepción…la habitación simple era muy pequeña
