Solo estuve 1 noche de paso, si no, no lo recomiendo.
Pros:

El personal, eran muy amables y eficientes tanto la chica que había en recepción por la tarde, como el chico de la mañana.

Cons:

El alojamiento está bastante regular.
La habitación solo tenía una mini ventana que daba a un pasillo interior, y la puerta del baño solo se podía abrir un poco porque tocaba con la cama. En las fotos parecía mejor, la verdad.
