Escapada , retiro fantástico
Pros:

La decoración muy curada , el entorno mágico en plena naturaleza.
Maya la responsable ha sido de gran ayuda para organizarnos la escapada , muy eficaz!!

Cons:

Habitaciones un poco oscuras .. pero es normal por tener la montaña en frente a unos metros .
A lo mejor alguna luz más potente para cuando se necesita .
El restaurante ha de mejorar …
