Apartamento muy acogedor y muy buen trato
Pros:

Nos alojamos en la Suite 5. Apartamento muy grande y acogedor, totalmente equipado. La zona es muy tranquila y de fácil acceso. Muy buen trato del personal del hotel, especialmente Alexis (el chico de recepción) fue muy cercano y amable, e incluso nos aconsejó sitios que podíamos visitar en la ciudad.

Just my experience
Pros:

Good location easy to find and we had an accessible room which had a large bed ,kettle, iron and TV. The walk in shower was nice too.

Cons:

My partner and I have degenerative breath disorders so to find what we believed was mould in the bathroom was worrying, we both woke feeling very tight chested with a fair bit of coughing included .
