Hotel Sercotel Coliseo
Such a clean, perfectly-located establishment! We wish we could’ve stayed there longer. Front desk was friendly and helpful, and the rooms have all the modern amenities you could need. Bed was the comfiest we’ve encountered on our three-week trip. I definitely recommend this spot!
