Séjour réussi dans un hôtel de qualité
Pros:

Nous avons passé un très bon séjour dans cet hôtel. Notre chambre était agréable, propre et bien entretenue. Elle était aménagée sur deux niveaux, ce qui lui donnait un petit côté original et la rendait très agréable à vivre. Elle était également très calme, ce que nous avons beaucoup apprécié. Le petit balcon avec ses deux chaises, donnant sur un jardin, était un vrai plus.
Le personnel a toujours été accueillant, souriant et serviable tout au long de notre séjour.

Cons:

Les seuls petits points à améliorer concernent la chambre. Nous avions demandé des lits jumeaux, mais ils étaient pratiquement collés l’un à l’autre et il était difficile de les éloigner davantage en raison de l’aménagement de la chambre.

La colazione senza glutine praticamente quasi inesistente nonostante avessimo richiesto espressamente di ci era stato detto che c’erano opzioni gluten free alla fine c’era solo pane e crackers
