Un quiero...y no puedo
Cons:

Si la habitación está hecha, no se puede tener a un cliente sin entrar porque no son las 14:00.

Nunca hay gente en recepción, tienes que hablar con trabajadores que no saben tu situación.
Muy poco profesional este aspecto.

Volveremos
Pros:

El hotel es muy bonito al conservar el estilo del antiguo convento, uno de los lugares históricos de la villa. Muy bien ubicado. El disponer de parking privado es otro lujo a tener en cuenta.
