Mediocre
Pros:

La colazione molto varia e abbondante, con la possibilità anche dell’asporto

Cons:

La camera, nonostante la grandezza generosa, non avevo neanche l’accesso alla terrazza perché faceva angolo ed era tutta coperta dai pannelli, e il climatizzatore faceva un gran rumore in continuazione.
Bagno molto piccolo
