Bien
Pros:

La ubicación es fenomenal para visitar el casco antiguo. Las habitaciones están bien.

Cons:

Salimos temprano y al volver por la tarde la habitación no estaba hecha, es la primera vez en mi vida que me pasa en un hotel. Según me dijeron teníamos que haber dejado la tarjeta para que la hicieran, siempre ha sido revés, la dejas cuando quieras que no te la hagan ni molesten.
Cuidado con el ruido de los rooftops, en fin de semana puede ser bastante molesto.

Pros:

Location

Cons:

The air conditioning was directly above our heads, so it was constantly blowing cold air.
The safe was not working, and although they cannot take responsibility for anything that gets lost, they said they would monitor our room on camera. This is not ideal…
It has potential. Some things have to change, though.
