Súper Recomendable, Como en casa! Gracias!
Pros:

El personal (Daniel, Bianca y el chico de la tarde, unos genios muy atentos, predispuestos y destacadamente amables). Las instalaciones comunes para cocinar y comer son un gran plus, ubicado cerca de la calle principal y mercados. Limpio.

Cons:

Solo un detalle, para Acceder caminando con valijas desde el centro parece cerca pero en invierno las calles resbalan y es en subida.

Excelente lugar!
Pros:

La ubicación del hotel es perfecta, la vista de la ciudad desde la planta baja, que tiene bebidas calientes y cookies siempre disponibles, es hermosa. La habitación y todo el hotel estaba muy bien calefaccionado, la cama muy cómoda, y los baños muy limpios. Pero lo mejor fue el trato con los chicos de recepción, Danny y su compañero fueron super amables y me dieron un montón de recomendaciones y datos valiosos. Volvería sin dudarlo!

Cons:

Nada, todo fue perfecto.
