Pros:

Bien ubicado, desayuno normal, sin extras. Zona céntrica. Tiene zona con microondas, jarra eléctrica y con mesas para poder comer allí, trayendo la comida del exterior. Un item que suma, más cuando se hospeda por trabajo y tiene esas facilidades.

Cons:

En realidad no hay nada que tenga reparo. El estacionamiento si bien está incluído, es en un predio contiguo y está en el 5° piso del mismo, las maniobras de subida y bajada del mismo son de cuidado, ya que hay lugares de la rampa, con maniobrabilidad reducida.
