Muy mejorable
Cons:

La limpieza, los suelos y puertas hinchados como si se hubiera inundado, polvo. Además se ve antiguo. El horario de la piscina (no abre hasta las 11 de la mañana). Había escalones de diferente altura sin señalizar en los que nos caímos tanto mi marido como yo.

estancia bien, comida buena pero tacaña
Pros:

la estacia en general, la ubicacion a la entrada de la sierra, y cerca de manantiales que abastecen la ciudad

Cons:

os desayunos, ejemplo cafe con leche, no son generosos, justitos... hay una cierta austeridad o tacañeria con la comida.
las raziones vistas, no son para llenar, en relacion a los precios, son caros, para bolsillos normales.
