Acollidor i còmode
Pros:

Té un patinde descans molt acollidor amb servei de cafè tè i aigua que s’agraeix molt i dos balancins que són el millor! Una petita nevereta a l’habitació també va molt bé..👍

Cons:

El sorollet continu de córrer aire o aigua que hi ha a l’habitació i el coixí massa alt pel meu gust però la resta tot molt bé.

C'est un hôtel que je recommande pour les voyageurs

Such a cool spot.
Pros:

The room is great and cozy. Bed is comfy. Location is great. Good soundproofing.

Cons:

Some ppl bang the doors. The toilets could be better cleaned and maintained. Some stuff was broken. The lighting system in the room is nice but odd to operate and understand how it works.
