Pros:

Very good selection breakfast. Staff were very friendly.
The room we stayed in was very comfortable.
Bus stop right outside so very handy for travelling in and out of the city

Cons:

Everything was buffet style. Would have liked if tea/coffee and toast were brought to the table.
In the room, there were no drawers for storage - OK for one night but a bit of a drawback if staying for 2 or 3 nights

La habitación muy amplia. La chica de recepción muy amable, estaba estudiando nuestro idioma y nos habló en él.
La ubicación apartada de la ciudad pero zona muy tranquila.

Cons:

Que el Bar del Hotel cerrará pronto. Y no tenían nada para picar con una cerveza.
