Pros:

La ubicación del hotel es inmejorable.
Es imposible estar más céntrico. Es ideal para conocer el casco histórico de la ciudad, que es muy bonito. Además la chica de la recepción es súper amable.

No hubo nada que nos disgustara. Es verdad que no es un hotel moderno pero está cuidado y muy limpio.
