"Everything was fresh"

Alva Hotel Brautarholt

10/10 Excellent

"Todo funcionó perfecto. Tuvimos un pequeño inconveniente con el desayuno, ya que el restaurante no sabía, llamamos al número de atención al cliente del hotel y el 5 minutos estaba resuelvo. Creo que es un problema cuando uno hace la reserva con Expedía, ya que esto nos pasó otra vez más en otro hotel que también reservamos con expedía. En el lobby hay un teléfono para contactar al personal "
