La signora del bar è stata gentilissima per la colazione

Nada recomendable
Pros:

Solo que la habitación era amplia por decir algo positivo

Cons:

El baño tenía una mampara plegable y cuando la abrías se quedaba en medio del aseo y al ducharte se llenaba todo de agua.la ducha tenía poca presión por lo que era eterno ducharse. Las toallas… por llamarlo de alguna forma porque ni toallas parecían ya. Deshilachadas, no secaban de lo viejas que estaban.
El desayuno pésimo. Bollería industrial y jamón y queso con pan de molde. Todo de pésima calidad.
El personal poco agradable.
Está bastante lejos.
Creo que aunque es el más barato de la zona se paga suficiente para tener y cumplir unos mínimos. Con descuentos de booking he pagado 275 por 3 noches. Una pena.. No lo recomiendo ni volvería.

Budget option
Pros:

Good price, budget stay in the suburbs. Breakfast provided was fine. The hotel cat was lovely. The garden was nice.

Cons:

We were not made to feel very welcome on dropping bags off. No tea and coffee facilities. Quite outdated with shared balcony.

OK
Pros:

Het is gewoon heel erg Italiaans - charmant. Kamer is ruim.

Cons:

Badkamer was heel basic, personeel aan de receptie vriendelijk, maar in de eetzaal erg nors. Locatie is net te ver van het centrum als je er een paar dagen bent en telkens wilt lopen naar de stad (ja, er rijden trams)

Arnaque, photos mensongères, n'y allez pas.
Cons:

Nous avons été très mal reçu.
Seule une dame a fait de son mieux pour communiquer avec nous.

Les photos ne reflètent pas la réalité, elles sont complètement mensongères.

Nous n'avons absolument pas eu le style de chambre que nous avions réservée.
Elle était sale, l'état de la salle de bain était à vomir. Cheveux et chewing-gum collés au sol. La douche, remplie de moisissures, fonctionnait à peine.

C'était aussi TRÈS bruyant. Nous entendions tout ce qu'il se passait au dessus de nous que ça soit des pas, des meubles tirés ou une télévision. Impossible de se reposer après une longue journée en ville.

Nous avons fait le choix de rentrer deux nuits plus tôt car ce fut une expérience catastrophique.

Je ne comprends absolument pas que ce genre d'établissement soit proposé sur une plateforme comme Booking.

C'est une honte.

Gato por Lebre
Pros:

Nada! Sinto-me enganado as fotos do Booking não correspondem a realidade, pelo menos no quarto que me atribuíram.

Cons:

Péssimo, 4 paredes com uma janela no tecto, uma cama de criança, esperaram comigo num 3 andar sem elevador, sem estacionamento, 2 noites de pesadelo com tantas melgas e mosquitos, mal tratado no check out ao solicitar factura com NIF, entregou-me um talão tipo de café e correu comigo em tom ameaçador.

Not worth it, hostile environment despite good location
Pros:

Nice location, 20 min by bus to the city centre, free parking on the road.

Cons:

I did not mind that the staff had a hard time communicating in English, it’s a different country after all and the main points (key, room number, door code) got across. However they didn’t feel very forthcoming. We arrived and went out to come back and see our sheets were dirty (stains, hairs). When I asked for a new one I got told it’s too late, I should’ve checked when first entering the room (which is true) and now there’s nothing they can do, even though they looked into a cupboard full of folded sheets. Even if they had been fully out, which it didn’t look like, the response was overall more annoyed and “what do you want me to do about that” than friendly and understanding. I hate leaving bad reviews and having to be picky about things like bedsheets anyways but there’s better places to stay. For 100 each night (we were only there for two) it was not worth the money, I could have gotten the same dirty and noisy experience (construction outside) in a hostel for much less. At least I have learned from this experience to always always check the hygiene of a room first (silly of me to expect it to be clean to begin with) and then ask for clean sheets right after check in since the bedsheet fairy apparently takes all the clean ones away after 4pm.
