Pros:

L’ambiente, in un palazzo antico ristrutturato.
La posizione, in pieno centro,
I servizi e lo staff ottimi.

Cons:

Unica piccolo neo il rumore proveniente dalla strada dove ci sono alcuni bar e la gente staziona a chiacchierare. Comunque i doppi vetri riescono ad isolare bene la stanza.

Zentral, sauber und sehr freundlich
Pros:

Hotel in einem historischen Gebäude mitten in der Altstadt. Die Räume waren entsprechend dunkler, da es in den engen Gassen war, was aber zum Ambiente dazu gehört. Es war sehr sauber und ruhig. Das Frühstück war frisch und sehr gut. Das Personal sehr zuvorkommend und freundlich.

Buenas opción para Guimaraes
Pros:

Lo mejor del hotel es el personal. Profesional y extremadamente amable. La ubicación es fabulosa, justo en el centro de la ciudad y el parking muy cómodo y barato

Cons:

Hay dos cosas mejorables:
la iluminación del baño es realmente pésima, a pesar de que el diseño del mismo es muy bonito.
El desayuno no se corresponde con un hotel de 4 estrellas tipo boutique
