Questions & Answers about Disfrutamos tanto el minibar como las comodidades de la habitación.
How does tanto... como... translate to "both... and..." in this sentence?
The phrase tanto [A] como [B] is a correlative conjunction that emphasizes two things are equally included, translating to "both [A] and [B]". Notice that tanto doesn't change its ending to match el minibar or las comodidades because it functions as an invariable adverb here, rather than an adjective.
Why is there no preposition like de after disfrutamos?
The verb disfrutar can be used with or without the preposition de. Saying Disfrutamos tanto el minibar... (without de) is perfectly natural, as it treats the things you enjoyed as direct objects. Using Disfrutamos de tanto el minibar... would also be grammatically correct, but dropping the de is very common and sounds a bit more direct.
Does comodidades just mean "comforts"?
Literally, yes, but in the context of hotels and travel, comodidades is the standard Spanish word for "amenities." So here, it refers to things like the Wi-Fi, air conditioning, plush towels, or whatever else made the room nice.
How can I tell if disfrutamos means "we enjoy" or "we enjoyed"?
You have to rely entirely on context! For regular -ar verbs, the first-person plural (nosotros) form is exactly the same in both the present tense and the preterite (simple past) tense. Without a time marker like ayer (yesterday), it could technically mean either, but the provided translation tells us it is the past tense here.
