If you have been following my recent blog posts, you already know how impressed I am with this mountain hotel which I recently visited. Usually I don’t travel much, but when I do, I like to be comfortable and get the most bang for my buck. I guess all of us do that. After all, greenbacks have to be earned the hard way; some call it sweat equity, which I find amusing.
Anyway, when I got to Hotel Lérida I was surprised discovering how much the surroundings and the buildings mimicked a Scandinavian country. I was even more surprised when I opened the door and looked inside. The suites were gorgeous. The combinations of colors, the crystal pitcher with sparkling water, a shower that looked like an Apple crystal store, the wooden floors, a huge fireplace, an elegant streamlined bathroom sink—all the comforts of modern life in the middle of nowhere.
Describing the suites from the inside is useless in printed words, so I’ll make use of pictures to express what I mean by gorgeous suites. Are you ready? Here we go.
