Pros:

Abbastanza comodo per l'utilizzo del bus

Cons:

Struttura sporca a partire dall'ascensore (macchie/starnuti sugli specchi mai puliti).
In camera non entrano mai a pulire o sistemare anche solo il letto.
Stanza veramente piccola rispetto ad altri 3 stelle.
Dopo 4 giorni di soggiorno ci era stato garantito che al terzo ci avrebbero cambiato le lenzuola, anche questo mai successo. Ci siamo andati a lamentare in reception e ci hanno detto che lo avrebbero fatto il giorno seguente scusandosi, peccato che il giorno seguente era il giorno del check out.
Non torneremo più! Sconsigliato

Good location need some improvement on air ventilation in the room
Pros:

Very good and convenient location. Good value for money however I wouldn’t stay here again for more than two nights

Cons:

Although the room has a gorgeous view the air in it was very stiff and hard to brief. The pillows very uncomfortable and a dangerous headboard. The humidifier provided in the room helped when I was in the room only, when away and the key card removed the power wasn’t working to keep the humidifier on and every time when returning to the room had a bad smell in it of moisture. It’s a shame that there are no windows to open

No limpian las habitaciones durante la estancia
Pros:

La ubicación es lo que tiene el sitio.

Cons:

No avisan de que no hay limpieza de la habitación. No es justo para otros hoteles que Carta no avise de que no va a limpiar tu habitación, porque tu llegas pensando que es un hotel normal y es un servicio que no ofrecen, por lo que realmente no es comparable a otros hoteles.
