"La réservation etait confirmée et la dame a refusé nous aceuillir. Elle a dit qu elle ne travaillait plus avec Expedia car elle n avait pas reçu de clients et que le prix était trop bas. J ai accepté de payer plus mais elle a refusé de nous faire entrer. Il était 11 h 30 et elle trouvait que c était trop tôt. J ai demandé si on pouvait juste voir la partie commune mais elle a refusé prétextant qu elle ne travaille que par réservation sans visite possible. Bref une grosse perte de temps et d...

Hotel San Agustin Posada del Monasterio

8/10 Good
"El papel higiénico es de mala calidad. Nos gustó lo gentil que fue el personal. La ubicación es muy buena. Los desayunos deberían de tener más variedad. La máquina de café siempre apagada y teniendo que solicitar la enciendan cada vez que se va a usar. Ese detalle es grave. Escaso pan en el desayuno. La caja fuerte no funciona digitalmente y se debe usar la llave. El sistema de cortinas no permite el uso adecuado con las ventanas Antiruido."
