Получил удовольствие.
Pros:

Расположение, завтрак, номер и персонал без нареканий. Все отлично! Номер категории "люкс" выше всяких похвал. Замечательный вид. Номер просторный. Не перегружен.

Cons:

Особенности конструкции самого здания. Во втором номере категории "стандарт" окно глухое, не открывалось.
