Serviço, localização e café da manhã excelentes!

A equipe que trabalha no hotel é sensacional, muito simpáticos, sempre dispostos a ajudar com o que podem é muito atenciosos. O café da manhã é muito bom e a vista do terraço é bem legal para curtir um café sem pressa. Além disso, os quartos são confortáveis e a localização é excelente. Fizemos tudo a pé e estávamos a apenas algumas quadras da Plaza de Armas. O único ponto é que, as vezes, durante o banho, aconteciam alguns jatos gelados ou muito quentes, mas no geral a temperatura da água é boa. Eu recomendo muito.
