Nel complesso buona, ottima colazione e pulizia generale dell'hotel. Personale gentilissimo.
Pros:

Stanza grande, e spaziosa. Bella doccia e bagno puliti. Colazione varia e qualità del cibo ottima. Struttura moderna e bella da vedere. Anche la posizione era buona, un po' distante dalla metro ma con autobus di fronte.

Cons:

Il servizio di pulizia delle stanze lasciava un po' a desiderare. I primi giorni rientrando in camera la sera trovavamo diverse cose in disordine come cuscini a terra e ciabatte sparse per la camera. Il penultimo giorno siamo rientrati un po' prima (alle 16:30) e la stanza non era stata fatta, dicendo che saremmo usciti di nuovo intorno alle 19:00 ci è stato risposto: "Il nostro turno sta finendo, puliremo domani".
