fix pass after the batch check. Best Hospital: the street address Avenida Príncipes de España, which no cited page showed, was replaced with Carretera del Rosario 145 in Ofra from the health ministry hospital directory. Casino & Gaming Halls: rewritten, because no source put a casino on Calle la Marina; the gaming casino is Casino Santa Cruz inside the Iberostar Heritage Grand Mencey on the Rambla, and the Real Casino de Tenerife at Plaza de la Candelaria 12, founded in 1840, is a private club and listed monument. The map titles for those two places were corrected to what the map objects show, and the record's model and verified date now name this pass.
