El SPA bien para pasar un rato y desconectar. Sencillo pero agradable. Habitaciones cómodas y amplias. La cena buena y camarer@s agradables.
El desayuno está bien, pero un poco lío para saber dónde están las cosas. Lo mejoraría poniendo algún cartelito para saber cuál es la sala del café y la de tostar pan.

El Hotel precioso y espectacular, muy cómodo.
Interestingly, the hotel has decided that the background music in the main areas should also accompany guests in the hallways... and, by the way, inside the rooms. Thus, even during resting hours like from 3:00 PM to 5:00 PM, one can enjoy an unsolicited soundtrack. It may make sense in main areas, but in the rooms, all it achieves is to prevent silence and true rest. It's a pity that they don't differentiate between creating an atmosphere and disturbing those looking for tranquility... because, after all, one comes to a hotel to rest, not to attend a permanent concert.
Curiosamente, el hotel ha decidido que el hilo musical de las zonas comunes también acompañe a los huéspedes en los pasillos… y, de paso, dentro de las habitaciones. Así, incluso en horas de descanso como de 15:00 a 17:00, se puede disfrutar de una banda sonora no solicitada. En zonas comunes puede tener sentido, pero en las habitaciones lo único que consigue es impedir el silencio y el verdadero descanso. Una lástima que no se distinga entre ambientar un espacio y molestar a quien busca tranquilidad… porque, al fin y al cabo, uno viene a un hotel a descansar, no a asistir a un concierto permanente.
