Hotel muy recomendable
Pros:

Muy buen hotel, ubicado dentro de la ciudadela. Habitación muy cómoda, muy buen desayuno. Personal muy amable.

Cons:

Al retirarnos hubo un problema con un taxi, ya que se supone que nos pasaba a buscar a las 10 y finalmente llegó 10:40, con lo cual perdimos el tren. Como el lugar de recogida no está en el hotel (es afuera de la ciudadela ya que no pueden entrar autos) solamente pudimos esperar y el taxi llegó tarde.

Pros:

ubicacion

Cons:

Me dieron una habitación en un edificio anexo. Era muy antigua y por la noche había que poner un código para poder acceder al edificio, para poner el código de acceso, teníamos que encender la linterna del móvil.
Cómo mucho dos estrellas y estábamos pagando de cuatro.
El desayuno super justo tirando a pensión
