Mala atención en general del personal y estacionamiento muy lejos
Pros:

El hotel está bien mantenido en gral.

Cons:

La atención del personal , sobre todo del restaurante es muy mala. Un garzona pretendía que nos tomáramos una botella de vino con restos del corcho que a ella se le había roto.El estacionamiento está muy lejos y se paga aparte. La habitación si bien comoda , tiene unas cortinas muy claras. El gym no tiene pesas , ni implementos y la única máquina de ejercicios está mala.
