Pros:

Posizione ottima.
Alla reception parlano inglese fluentemente.

Cons:

Stanza completamente vuota dotata praticamente di soli futon.
Consapevole che vi fossero i futon ma assenza di comodità come appoggi, mensole e sedie.
Bagno piccolo.

No repetiría en el
Pros:

La experiencia de dormir en tatamis

Cons:

Cada vez que entrábamos la habitación olía fatal, ni dejando la mini aventanita que había abierta se iba el olor .
El baño era prefabricado y super pequeño para una habitación para 4 personas
