Casa Brunella Hotel Boutique
The shower was awkward. It's a spa shower with lots of pressure. However, the shower stall was small and on a diagonal and all the water just splashed all over the place. It was on the floor outside of the stall. Even with the door tightly closed, the floor on the outside was wet.
