Un lugar acogedor
Pros:

Estaba súper limpio, y era cómodo
Todo correcto para un hotel pequeño

Cons:

Que te cobran 120€ más por una habitación con vistas al mar y no da al mar… tiene justo delante un hotelazo de 5*

Pros:

Het gemak van de locatie!

Cons:

De douchecabine was erg klein, je kon er bijna niet in bewegen, er zat veel schimmel in de hoek van de muur en er liep een kakkerlak rond in de lobby van het hotel.
