Voll zufrieden.

Es hat mir hier gut gefallen. Rund um die Uhr war immer einer ansprechbar. Man hat alles möglich gemacht, die Wünsche zu erfüllen. Frühstück war klein, aber ausreichend und liebevoll zubereitet. Frühstücksraum ist leider nur über eine enge Wendeltreppe zu erreichen. Ich würde dieses Hotel wieder nehmen. Einen kleinen Kretik-Punkt gibt aber doch. Die Handtücher müssten mal komplett erneuert werden 10 min Fußweg ins Zentrum. Zum Bausbahnhof ca. 15-20 Minuten. Kann mit Gepäck anstrengend sein. San Cristóbal ist eine kleine überschaubare Stadt, aber der Verkehr ist verhältnismäßig sehr stark. Bürgersteige sind zum normalen Lauf eigentlich nicht geeignet, sehr schmal und teilweise auch sehr hoch.
