Great stay, nice staff, delicious breakfast
The staff was nice and the room was spacious and comfortable. There was a plate of fruit waiting for us which was really nice. The breakfast was delicious too! The taxi and tour group in the lobby was super helpful and took us to the airport and Casco Viejo.
