La ubicación y el diseño muy mediterráneo

La limpieza debe ser diaria,y el desayuno muy sencillo

la limpieza de las habitaciones y el trato cortes del personal del hotel

Se fue el agua en dos oportunidades, aunque solucionaron el problema, tuvimos que esperar con este calor. El anuncio es con vista al mar, por ello deben recortar o amarrar la paja caída del techo para que no interrumpa la vista desde la terraza. Por lo demás estuvimos cómodos.
