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.
