por unos días vale..

a la primera vista parece de mas de una estrella. después de unos días, ya se entiende... algunas habitaciones tienen los colchones de estado lamentable.ropa de cama muy gastada. las almohadas fatales. en mi habitación había un olor fuerte de humedad,tuve que cambiar a otra que era mejor. la duscha bien, con buena agua caliente de paneles solares. el desayuno muy simple. un café de mala calidad,mejor un te,un crepe ,baguette y mermelada. la terraza es buena, pero no hay sombra,así que o hacia frío por el viento o calor por falta de sombra. la limpieza bien. wifi correctamente. lo mejor es la ubicación .ideal !
