Pros:

Das Hotel liegt am Stadtrand und man wohnt ruhig. Mit Bus und/oder Bahn ist man schnell im Zentrum.

Cons:

Das Frühstück hat mich nicht überzeugt, da man sehr lange warten musste, wenn etwas fehlte (zum Beispiel Tassen).

Pros:

La cafetería y la atención de parte del personal,

Cons:

La falta de atención de parte del personal, los malos olores en el baño de las habitaciones (olor a tuberia) y la falta de atención del servicio de limpieza de las habitaciones. El sábado eran las 20:00 horas y las habitaciones estaban sin hacer, las hicieron cuando nos quejamos y lo único q hicieron fue estirar la funda nórdica porque la sabana bajera estaba arrugada y no cambiaron las tazas y no repusieron ni el minibar, ni el agua ni las toallas, tuvimos que volver a quejarnos.
