Tuvimos la suerte de estar prácticamente solos en la visita. Nos gustó mucho, es más pequeña que la basílica pero el encanto de verla a solas la hizo más bonita. El único inconveniente es que, en el cupón informaban de que la apertura era a las 9:00 y abren a las 10:00, por lo que tuvimos que esperar 1h en la puerta… por lo demás, todo perfecto.
