Tour Granada
Pros:

Mi e piaciuto la posizione molto vicino al centro, si può andare anche a piedi e si fa una bella passeggiata, poi il posto molto carino di fronte al lago, ritornerei ma non farei lì la colazione perché costa il triplo di una colazione normale, su quello sono rimasta molto dispiaciuta. Non lo farei più

Cons:

Veramente hanno esagerato con il prezzo della coalizione, costa il triplo di quelle normali che alla fine si mangia lo stesso, al meno per me non va bene.

Cons:

No respetan las horas de descanso de los huéspedes! Te despiertan antes de las 6am para que muevas tu vehículo! No tienen buena logística para el guardado de los vehículos y no molestar al huésped! Te golpean las puertas e irrespetan el descanso de uno! No te trata. Con respeto y amabilidad para poder tratar de la misma manera! Si te tratan bien tratas bien si no respetan tu estancia y lo que quieres es descansar a quien no le va a molestar que lo lleguen a despertar un domingo antes de las 6am. Cuando estas pagando … no recomiendo para nada ese lugar

El costo es elevado para las condiciones del lugar, mejor pagar un poco más por un lugar más aseado.
Pros:

La ubicación es buena, frete al malecón, caminamos varias veces hasta el parte y la catedral de noche inclusive y todo bien, no esta demasiado largo tampoco para caminar, hay aire condicionado y el equipo parece nuevo, el personal es amable y nos ayudaron con el servicio de lavandería de nuestra ropa.

Cons:

La primera habitación que me dieron, en la parte alta era simplemente insoportable dormir ahí, tenía un intenso olor a orina de rata o murciélago, luego nos cambiaron y el olor desapareció, el mobiliario es viejo e incomodo, las camas, closet en general, pedí cobijas y me dieron sábanas, la verdad pasamos algo de frío, el lugar donde se toma el desayuno esta bastante sucio.
