Nada bien
Pros:

La ubicación es por lejos lo mejor

Cons:

Cuando llegamos no quedaban habitaciones disponibles pese a que habíamos reservado con mucho tiempo de antelación. Nos enviaron al hotel del frente, el cual era totalmente distinto, bastante chico el espacio y nada para que el aire saliera, sin ventanas. Luego de dos noches nos enviaron al hotel y la verdad si estaba bien inseguro. Las instalaciones bastante malas, el ascensor crujía mucho y la ropa de cama estaba hedionda.

Pros:

Rien du tout. Immonde de A à Z

Cons:

Rien à voir avec les images. Bâtiment insalubre, sale. Les chambres puent, les matelas pas confortables,les draps sont sales et pas changés pendant 4 nuits. Les sanitaires vieillot et pas entretenu. Le petit déjeuner est insuffisant. Se trouve dans un quartier de manufacture de chaussures, l'insécurité règne. Bref, on a regretté d'avoir choisis cet hôtel. Le pire de toute notre vie.

Pros:

El desayuno. Variado y muy rico. Increíble.

Cons:

La unión del grifo con la manguera de la ducha no estaba muy firme y el edificio de al lado hace ruido (aunque es verdad que sobre las 22 30 deja de hacerlo)
