En general bien
Pros:

El señor de recepción fue muy amable. Solo estuvimos una noche pero en general la habitación (con cocina) estaba muy limpia, parecía reformada recientemente. La cama es cómoda. Hacia calor y el A/A funcionó perfectamente. La Smart TV es grande y se ve bien. Parking disponible, para mi es esencial porque no se puede aparcar por la zona fácilmente. El parking es para coches medianos y pequeños, hay que maniobrar bastante pero con paciencia se puede acceder y salir.

Cons:

Por razones logísticas tuvimos que usar la cocina, solo para calentar la comida, pero la ausencia de un poco de jabón y estropajo por ejemplo, dificultaban reutilizar los cubiertos o platos. Estas cosas no cuestan mucho y te dan el avío. También se echaron en falta algo de papel de cocina o servilletas y algún paño. En fin, si hay cocina, lo suyo es tener lo esencial.

déçus par la ville on s'attendait à quelque chose de bien plus joli et restaurants très moyens
Pros:

d'une manière générale nous avons été déçus par la ville elle même que nous avons trouvé plutôt mal entretenue (sols sales) - pour ce qui est de l'hôtel, le personnel a été acceuillant et a répondu courtoisement à nos demandes - parking difficile d'accès pour les grandes voitures - le petit déjeuner est a améliorer peu de choix

Cons:

principalement le petit déjeuner qui est un moment important de la journée - manque de produits frais et variés (fruits)

Muy buena experiencia con algún punto a mejorar
Pros:

La ubicación muy buena y el personal muy amable, nos dieron un apartamento en lugar de un estudio mejorando nuestra estancia

Cons:

Estaba bastante viejo aunque recién reformado, la cocina sin reformar y poco equipada y podría estar mucho más limpia

Pros:

No sabía que la habitación tenía cocina con lo cual no fui preparada para ello, mi chico y yo estábamos de aniversario y le pedí unas copas de cristal a la camarera cuando llegue a la habitación había una botella de vino y dos copas de cortesía del hotel. Muy agradecida por el detalle. La ubicación magnífica, aunque es muy difícil aparcar en la.zona si aparcas un pelin más afuera te olvidas de todo y puedes moverte por la ciudad en transporte público, andando o en tu propio coche

Cons:

Es cierto que no es un hotel de lujo, para mi está genial
