Im Hotel la Palma fühlt man sich wie auf La Palma
Pros:

Das Hotel ist nahe des Bahnhofs gelegen. Für eine Anreise mit dem Zug somit bestens geeignet. Wir hatten eine gut ausgestattete Juniorsuite mit einem grossen Balkon (Sonne vom Aufgang bis zum Untergang). Zudem war die Minibar inkludiert. Das Frühstück war ebenfalls vielseitig.

Cons:

Im Badezimmer hat es leicht gemüffelt, der Lavaboabfluss sollte gereinigt werden.
