Buen Cambio de aires entre semana
Pros:

El desayuno estaba muy completo y todo muy ordenado. Ubicación adecuado y cerca de la playa.

Cons:

Tener que salir de la recepción por un pasillo por la noche para ir a otro edificio. Tendría que estar conectado los edificios interiormente.

Pros:

Sin tanta gente, relax absoluta , aparte que la habitación muy bien en general.
👏👏👏💪💪💪

Cons:

Por decir algo en, la puerta del baño que se podía quedar bloqueada , es decir, cerrada totalmente porque iba con un bebé y no paraba de entrar y salir.
