Pros:

Gostei de tudo, especialmente da simpatia do pessoal do alojamento. Pequeno almoço agradável.

Cons:

Fica só uma sugestão e espero que não levem a mal. As almofadas e colchões poderiam ser de qualidade superior.

Una estancia increíble
Pros:

Si necesitas unos días de desconexión este es tu hotel, rodeado de naturaleza y calma. Las habitaciones son limpias, amplias y cómodas. La piscina y el jacuzzi son una maravilla y el personal es muy atento y agradable.
Destacar el exquisito desayuno casero todas las mañanas. Estamos deseando volver.

Cons:

No haber podido estar más días!
