"Sick"
Hugo
"It was made when the Russians were in power and it looks like their boss, a "flying saucer". The beach hasn't arrived yet. Let's hope they stop torturing animals and dedicate it solely to cultural shows."
Jacobo Blasco
"I would love for them to take advantage of the land and the slopes to do something there, they are wasting the space."
