    El apartamento y la ubicación son estupendas. Los servicios son completos y muy limpios (Colchones prácticamente nuevos, toallas suficientes, cocina… todo limpio). El anfitrión Isabel es una persona simpática y muy acogedora que nos ha dado tiempo y consejos de cara a la ciudad (centro, playas…). El aparcamiento privado que dispone en el garage del edificio es algo muy importante dado que las dificultades de aparcar fuera.
