Cons:

Havíamos realizado uma reserva de um quarto familiar para 2 adultos e uma criança em março de 2026 para julho de 2026, porém quando chegamos no hotel não havia o quarto reservado disponível para o primeiro dia, então foi prometido para o dia seguinte, mas no segundo dia também não haveria o quarto disponível e teríamos que aguardar para o terceiro dia, decidimos fazer o checkout e procurar outra acomodação.

Pros:

Breakfast was very poor, same thing daily and not much variety. Bathroom is really small. Sleeper couch was very uncomfortable. Location was terrible because of the noise level. Entrance and exit of this hotel is poor because there is not enough space, no parking

Cons:

Food, noise level
