Decepcionada
Pros:

Lo único bueno de este alojamiento es la ubicación.

Cons:

Hice la reserva en este hotel hace un año, ya que fue un regalo, y nada tiene que ver con las fotos.
Se escuchaba todo de las otras habitaciones, el agua de la ducha se salía, no había enchufe en el baño, bastante polvo en la habitación, y ya para el colmo, uno de los días comenté que estoy embarazada y si podían calentarme un puré ya que me encontraba mal. Me hicieron ir al comedor, allí donde me dicen que no tienen microondas (mentira), del comedor me mandan al bar que tienen ubicado en el jardín, donde fueron muy bordes y nos dijeron que les daba igual quien me mandara, que ellos no tienen microondas.
El penúltimo día, tampoco limpiaron la habitación.
En fin, una pena. No volvería, mucho menos tras ver todas las reseñas negativas que en su momento no me pare a leer.

Cons:

Balcony doors very dangerous as one was jammed the other had failed bearings making g it very difficult to open. Balcony tiny and not safe to manoeuvre around chairs with a low wall around it. We didn't know that the hotel was so high up a very steep slope. We are both disabled, I have just had a replacement knee 6 months ago and still struggling. My wife has a feeding tube in her chest due to bowel surgery and has to wear a rucksack full of pump and feeding equipment. Although they offered a buggy to take us up and down this finished quite early so wasn't a solution. Would not have booked if the details were promenantly mentioned.
