Bon séjour !

Bien placé, la chambre est assez grande avec un coffre-fort qui est tjs utile, le petit bémol est qu’il n’y a pas de climatisation et le ventilateur fait un peu du bruit.

価格相当の宿泊先、シャワートイレが共同の部屋だった１点だけが残念。

フロントでクジラウォッチングやバルデス半島、その他のツアーが購入できるので便利。シャワートイレ付きの部屋もあるが、私は共同の部屋だったので、その点だけが不便だったが、あとは軒並み快適と言える。

国立公園、空港から近い

次回も利用したいホテルです、国立公園と空港から近いという立地が良いかと。フロントの対応も良く過ごしやすかった。レストランだけは、あまり私の口にはあわなかった。
