Pros:

Ystävällinen ja avulias henkilökunta. Siisti ja puhdas huone ja yleiset tilat. Parkkihalli.

Cons:

Aamupala oli muuten hyvä ja monipuolinen, hedelmiä oli tarjolla mutta kasviksia oli todella minimaalisesti.

Rentouttava loma tunnelmallisessa kylässä.
Pros:

Erittäin ystävällinen henkilökunta, tilava huone laadukkailla lisävuoteilla lisävuoteilla. Hyvä aamiainen. Miellyttävä ranta heti hotellin edessä.

Cons:

Uima-allas alue oli melko pieni mutta lokakuussa altaalla ei ollut ruuhkaa ja aurinkotuoli löytyi aina.

Sesimbra ist ein schöner Ort für einige Tage Entspannung. Das Hotel liegt optimal am Meer.
Pros:

Service und Personal sehr freundlich. Empfangspersonal war sogar deutschsprachig. Frühstücksbuffet vielfältig mit klasse Ambiente. Ausblick direkt aufs Meer und Pool. Sesimbras Ortskern liegt ebenfalls direkt am Meer. Sehr viel Stauraum im Zimmer. Nur 30 Minuten von Lissabon entfernt.

Cons:

Leider kein deutsches TV.

Hotel ma kilka niewątpliwych atutów, jednak w naszej ocenie nie jest to obiekt, który w pełni zasługuje na 5 gwiazdek. S

Pros:

A piscina com vistas sobre o mar e a localização.

Cons:

O nosso quarto tinha problemas a nível das instalações elétricas e de ventilação. Um ruído de canalizações impediu-nos de dormir.
A gerência foi muito correta e profissional na resolução do problema.

Apenas tem uma excelente vista, pois fica em cima da praia.
Pros:

Excelente localização.
podia ter melhor qualidade nos bolos, pois apenas tinha 4 tipos de pastelaria, todos de qualidade muito baixa.
Reparem, fazer um bolo caseiro, de laranja ou de chocolate, ou mesmo um brawnie tem uma dificuldade baixa, com excelentes produtos, farinhas e manteigas podiam fazer um brilharete, mas para isso precisam de VONTADE.
Num pais de excelente pão, tinha apenas dois tipos de pão e de qualidade muito baixa, falta apenas vontade e alguem mexer-se para colocar este tipo de produto à disposição do hotel.

Cons:

Cheiro a fossa no quarto em toda a estadia, falta de qualidade no atendimento, é necessário formação.
