El hotel es justamente como se ve en las fotos, los detalles de madera en los balcones, la alberca, la habitación estaba limpia y tenía aire acondicionado. Precio accesible acorde a lo que recibimos. En cuanto a las áreas de mejoras, la regadera acumulaba el agua debido a que el declive estaba al lado contrario de la coladera. Y quizá la terraza en el techo podría estar mejor adecuada y estaría súper genial si lo acondicionaran mejor. Pero en general fue buena experiencia en la estancia. Cerca del ferry y no muy lejos de playa norte. Solo está un poco escondido.
