El sitio excelente y la habitación fantástica, lo único malo es que el baño estaba fuera de la habitación, era de uso solo nuestro, pero la verdad que no era muy cómodo. Pero por lo demás, genial!

La ubicación es estupenda ! Todo cerquitita

Lo que menos el tamaño de la tele por decir algo

La azotea es una pasada, te preparas algo en la cocina y te subes a cenar

Quizás un poco incómodo el tema de las llaves,un poco de modernización... Pero bueno tiene su encanto igualmente

L'appartement était parfait bien équipé et très propre. La literie est très confortable également. Notre séjour a été très agréable, nous avons apprécié qu'il soit situé dans une rue piétonne sur la place de la mairie. Nous ne manquerons pas de reprendre une réservation lors de notre prochain séjour à Tavira.
