L’intero hotel e’ in ristrutturazione esterna quindi sei prigioniero in stanza. Non puoi nemmeno aprire una finestra. Assenza totale di decorazione, sembra di stare in una stanza di ospedale. Breakfast appena decente. In stanza, sanitario che si muoveva dal pavimento, tenda doccia a brandelli, assenza totale di shampoo per 4 giorni di fila. Reception molto gentile e disponibile. Ubicazione centrale
