Un tiempo estupendo y una buena ubicación
Pros:

Situación y la amplitud de la habitación.
El desayuno bien. Las vistas al mar.

Cons:

Cuarto de baño pequeño no tiene una encimera para colocar las bolsas de aseo. Ducha muy pequeña y resbaladiza, mejor una bañera.Toallas muy deterioradas y en general falta de limpieza de fregar en suelos.
Al entrar a la habitación no había sensación a limpieza perfumada o lejía.
