El hotel es agradable, en una calle peatonal muy tranquila y con lugares de interes cerca. El parking tiene buen acceso y me parece una opción recomendable. Lo recomiendo.

El ruido que hacen las puertas al cerrarse y el sonido de la tarjeta al abrirlas es inaceptable. También oíamos a los vecinos de habitación hablando.
El desayuno es tan precario que tuvimos que comprar nuestros propios productos.

En general es un buen hotel para viajar con la familia, muy limpio y cerca de todo, lo peor la poca amabilidad del personal de recepción , poco colaboradores , no proporcionan la ayuda necesaria, la recepcionista que nos atendió el primer día en vez de ayudarnos en los problemas que teníamos para acceder al hotel debido al corte de circulación por las fiestas locales se limitaba a indicar que ya nos habían cargado la primera noche y que abonáramos por adelantado la segunda ,preguntamos por el parking y previo a indicarnos dónde estaba etc ya nos dijo que lo teníamos que pagar aparte , sólo nos advertía pagos en vez de contestar nuestras preguntas ya estábamos en el ascensor cuando nos dio la bienvenida.

Pequeño desastre
Imagino que tuve mala suerte, muchos ruidos nocturnos, incluso la policía fue a detener a un escandaloso que la montó.

Alojamiento con encanto y confortable
Ha sido una estancia muy agradable. Habitacion amplia y con un hervidor de agua e infusiones para hacerte sentir más como en casa.
Excelente limpieza. Por poner un "pero" necesitaría más luz a la altura del escritorio, pero es mi caso particular ya que lo uso para trabajar.
Personal muy atento.

Estancia muy agradable a repetir
La calidad de los servicios en general muy correctos. La ubicación del hotel ideal. La única nota negativa es el acceso al garaje.
