Maria

"The hotel is in the center, convenient to everything. The welcome was warm and kind. The very large room for 4 adults, complete with all the services, clean and modern furnishings and rich in details, for example the glass of the bathroom with reindeer engraved. Christmas trees, decorations , even in the breakfast room, super rich and in an environment that was every morning a cuddle. Would definitely stay again!"
