Fue mucho mejor de lo que esperaba

Es un pequeño hotelito muy bien situado,cerca de la zona de compras,y a diez minutos andando de la Plaza central.Pasear por las calles que lo rodean es un placer.El hotel esta muy limpio y cuidado.Las habitaciones muy amplias y confortables. Aunque se le cataloga como de 3 estrellas, he estado en hoteles de 4 que mucho tienen que envidiarle en el buen estado y amplitud de sus habitaciones. El personal fue muy atento a todas nuestras peticiones y el propietario la amabilidad personificada. ..
Stayed 3 nights in Nov 2019
