Posizione fantastica, struttura datata
Pros:

Posizione comodissima e centralissima
Staff molto gentile
A colazione cornetti freschi

Cons:

Struttura datata, soprattutto i bagni
Le foto di Booking della colazione non corrispondono alla verità (yogurt, vassoi di pietanze, salato abbondante riportato nelle foto non presente in realtà)
Nella nostra stanza assenti alcune cose che erano presenti in descrizione, ad esempio il frigobar

Pros:

Nous étions au 3° étage alors que nous avions réservé dès janvier.
Chambre pas tres grande.

Cons:

Le plus compliqué au départ a été de garer la voiture le soir avant que nous puissions la mener au garage réservé par l'hôtel le lendemain.

Posizione ottimale
Pros:

Ho soggiornato in questo hotel e nel complesso mi sono trovato bene. La posizione è sicuramente uno dei punti di forza: è in pieno centro, molto comodo per spostarsi e visitare la zona. Inoltre è molto pratico il fatto che sia aperto anche di notte, cosa utile se si rientra tardi.

Le camere sono nella norma, semplici ma adeguate per un soggiorno. Il servizio è stato buono, con personale disponibile. Nel complesso una buona soluzione, soprattutto per la posizione.

Cons:

La colazione era discreta, anche se personalmente avrei gradito una maggiore varietà e non ha soddisfatto del tutto le mie aspettative

Muy buena posición centro centro
Pros:

La ubicación inmejorable, el personal muy educado y atento. Problema de parking pero porque nuestra llegada era muy tardes, y el parking cierra a las 20:00. Pero hemos podido resolver igual. Desayuno estaba bien. En general estuvo bien.

El colchón
