    Careful in all details, good reception despite arriving late and allowed us to leave the room a little later.

    I was surprised they asked for bail. I don't see it normal in a hotel of this category. It's never happened to me before in any other country.

    service, we were recommended and booked in two great restaurants. attentive. rooms are very comfortable and facilities are very new.

    They ask for a credit card as a guarantee without notifying the reservation. They finally accepted debit card as collateral. Breakfast too expensive.

    Mostly friendly staff, clean rooms. Quiet.

    On my one evening to dine there I was told I would have to eat in the bar as a party occupied the restaurant. I needed to read over dinner and it was too dark in the bar so I had to go out and find another restaurant. But if it was booked it was not anyone's fault.
