En general correcto
Pros:

Nos ha gustado todo menos el desayuno, que lo hemos encontrado muy limitado, solo tres cosas, no fuera que nos pasasemos

Cons:

El desayuno, no podiamos tomar mas de tres cosas! En nuestro casi nos hemos quedado con un zumito, un cafe con leche i una racion de tortilla de patatas, y cuando le hemos pedido un croissant, nos ha dicho que ya no entraba

En general positiva.
Pros:

habitación, emplazamiento perfecto, especialmente en fiestas de la encina o semana santa donde hay mucha actividad en la parte alta de la ciudad, muy próximo al impresionante castillo templario, también para peregrinos y turistas en cualquier época del año. Buena cocina tanto para comidas y cenas

Cons:

No dispone de desayuno tipo bufé, y la variedad de posibilidades del mismo escasa.
Por problemas estructurales, la bañera no dispone de agarre de seguridad para entrar y salir.
Falta espejo de aumento
