Me gustó la ubicación, se encuentra cerca de lugares de interés, tiendas, restaurantes y transporte. Las instalaciones son correctas, amplias y muy limpias. Tienen buenas condiciones de seguridad con acceso con tarjeta a todas las áreas. El desayuno es bueno, tiene una amplia variedad de productos, panes, dulces, salados, fruta. Pero lo más especial del alojamiento es que dispone de una cómoda biblioteca con butacas y aulas para charlas y encuentros.
