Recreación nefasta

El hotel es excelente. El animador del hotel un desastre. Se adueña de la pileta desde las 12.30 hasta las 18hs con música que aturde, haciendo entretenimientos berretas y en algunos casos burlándose de algunos huéspedes.

Fantástica piscina termal

La estadía fue excelente. El hotel es muy confortable, la higiene excelente y los servicios muy buenos.Cerca del centro de la ciudad. Hermosa piscina termal, sin duda lo mejor del lugar. Punto en contra: no hay carteles para agregar a la puerta de la habitación indicando que uno no desea ser molestado a la mañana, de modo que existe el riesgo de que el personal de servicio lo despierte para la limpieza.
