HOTEL molto accogliente con uno staff eccezionale.
Un hotel molto carino ed accogliente. Uno staff eccellente con Benge' e Jose a fare di tutto per accontentare gli ospiti. grazzzzzzie ragazzi.
Le camere sono pulite e spaziose. Il bagno è pulitissimo.
La zona non è centralissima ma un taxi per il centro costa solo 3 euro.
Hanno insistito per farci mangiare tutti insieme ed è stato bello davvero.
Ritorneremo preso a Casa Branca
