Pros:

Emplacement idéal mais il y a mieux, je pense : voir commentaires des points négatifs

Cons:

Notre chambre était propre mais la salle de bain était très très petite. Il fallait enjamber le WC pour accéder à la douche. La porte ne ferme pas à cause du lavabo 😀 . Nous aurions demandé à changer de chambre si nous restions une nuit de plus, puisque les autres sont un" peu" plus spacieuses. Le petit déjeuner n'est pas compris, même s'il n'y a qu'une porte pour entrer dans le commerce d'a côté. C'était très bon par contre

Buona per una/due notti
Pros:

Hotel in pieno centro storico, la Candelaria zona sicura. Colazione colombiana. La stanza pulita ma piccollissima e così pure il bagno. Lo staff gentile.

Cons:

La stanza è piccolissima ma considerando la posizione nella Candelaria è comprensibile, in pieno centro storico

Regular
Pros:

La ubicación y la calidad de la conexión a internet

Cons:

La habitación. Era muy pequeña, sin espacio para desplazarse y sin ventanas. Le llaman el "cuarto oscuro".
Además, mucho ruido externo, de otras personas.
