Es una vergüenza la falta de orden en el estacionamiento. Nadie q organice el lugar hace q se formen tapones. Para colmo llevan un DJ q hacen q el lugar explote de público, peri ante la falta de lugares permiten q los autos estacionen en el camino y se forman enoooorme colas para salir. Lo mismo las colas de 45 min que padecer en los medios. No piensan en el turista q viene 5 o 6 días a disfrutar ya q nos pone de malhumor la falta de organización.
