Está bien, pero en verano hace mucha calor.
Pros:

Las habitaciones son muy amplias y cómodas. Fuera de verano es totalmente recomendable.

Cons:

El aire acondicionado de las habitaciones es extremadamente flojo, y con las altas temperaturas en verano se genera mucho calor en ellas. En nuestra habitación prácticamente no enfriaba nada.
