Pros:

Hotel muy limpio y práctico, especialmente si necesitas estar cerca del aeropuerto. La piscina es cómoda y agradable para relajarse, y el desayuno estaba muy rico. Además, nuestro vuelo salía tarde por la noche y nos permitieron seguir utilizando la piscina y las duchas del gimnasio después del check-out, un detalle que apreciamos mucho. Personal amable y atento.

Cons:

Nada destacable. La estancia fue muy satisfactoria.
