Hostal moderno con temática flamenca
Pros:

Excelente ubicación desde la cual se puede acceder caminando a las principales atracciones turísticas de la ciudad. Desayuno abundante y variado. A pedido limpian la habitación y cambian las toallas a diario. Wifi de muy buena señal. Personal de recepción: amables, atentos y serviciales.

Cons:

Para una estancia prolongada como la mía, fue un error adquirir la habitación individual (por sus dimensiones) la cual resultó incómoda y poco funcional. No posee guardarropa (solo un perchero) ni escritorio ni silla. La relación calidad-precio no es de las mejores.

Pros:

Die Lage ist super. Besonders, wenn man das Nachtleben genießen will und zum Stadtstrand ist es dann ein kleiner, aber feiner Spaziergang. Das Frühstück ist richtig cute und sehr lecker. Super liebes Personal.

Cons:

Ich konnte keine 10 Punkte geben. Ich bin ca. 178 cm groß und das Bett im Einzelzimmer war mir fast zu klein und die Kissen zu hart.
