.....Looks like a pretty fine place. Is it "chica friendly" (doubt it).....?; But even if it is not....is it pretty dang nice inside; service good; all that jazz?

thanks!

Europa is chica friendly at last report. Rooms have been reported to be dated and on the shabby side. These reports are some what old so perhaps there have been some changes.

I know the casino reopened a little over a year ago and the coffee shop has been highly recommended.

Please note that these remarks are about the Europa on C central A 3 y 5 not the Radisson Europa.

My amiga worked in the casino, and on several occasions, I enjoyed the breakfast bar in the coffee shop when I picked her up from work. The breakfast is one of the best in town. I am unable to comment on the quality of rooms since I never camped out overnight. The last time I checked, Europa is chica friendly.

The rooms are dated but cleaner than the Morazan (owned by the same people). Chica friendly, decent restaurant and computer in lobby. Not too far from the action and would stay again if nothing else available but would be about 6th down on my list if looking for a room, but that's just me.
