"Aunque cuesta llegar al hotel, se come muy bien y el hotel en sí está bien. La habitación que nos tocó, era amplia y con un baño igual de grande. Tenía bañera de hidromasaje. No tiene aire acondicionado y en noches de mucho calor o si usas el jacuzzi, son MUY necesarias. También exceso el gel de ducha. Había 2 botes y 1 medio vacio. Tiene zona para aparcar y es muy tranquila la zona. La piscina esta a unos 200M del hotel. Está muy bien aunque la piscina sea pequeña, tiene chorros y cascada....
