La habitación está bien aunque un poco pequeña, el lugar está en buen estado pero no es para verano. Hay muy poco para hacer, el gimnásio es muy chico al igual que la pileta. Y queda muy lejos del centro.lo recomiendo para esquiar en invierno

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities
A ideia era reservar esse hotel para descansar, já que ele fica há 40 minutos do centro da cidade. E não tem nada perto. Mas o quarto estava MUITO sujo. A piscina estava bem suja e com muitas crianças gritando, então desistimos de usar. O quarto de cima, faz muito barulho para quem fica no térreo, os hóspedes chegaram na madrugada e dava para ouvir tudo. Não recomendo.

Chic apartamento de ski

Aclaro que fuimos en verano. Situado en las afueras en carretera pasando Chapelco, está situado en una estación de ski. El camino es difícil según qué vehículo pero el lugar es increíble: cabañas nuevas de madera y piedra, estilo rústico moderno, dispone de mini kitchen con todo lo necesario para preparar lo que necesites. El servicio muy cortés. Tiene una piscina medio techada y medio al aire libre con agua caliente: espectacular para relajarse, y sauna seco y húmedo, que te dejan usarlo incluso después del checkout. Handicap? Pues el restaurante que está en la pista de ski está sobrevalorado con precios infladísimos, y volver a San Martín para cenar de noche, difícil camino. Recomiendo usar la cocina de las instalaciones.
