"Un lugar con mucho contacto con la naturaleza. Las instalaciones estan descuidadas y se ven viejas. El buffet caro para dos opciones de guisado que había, aunque si estaba muy rico… el servicio del personal es escaso y deja un poco que desear… lo bueno es que de ahí mismo puedes contratar las actividades, ya que no hay nada cerca…"
