Sehr schönes Hotel in Porto

Sehr gute Lage um Porto zu entdecken. Das Hotel Liegt etwas ausserhalb des Zentrums am Meer, die Innenstadt ist mit Bus und Tram sehr gut und schnell erreichbar.

En ok vistelse, men levde inte upp till förväntningarna och priset.
Pros:

Rummet var fint. Takterassen var också maffig med utsikt över havet och tillgång till pool. Fräscht gym.

Cons:

Jag hade läst många recensioner som beskrev hur bra frukosten var så jag hade höga förväntningar. Den levde inte upp till dem. I jämförelse med svenska hotell så var det i min mening en ganska enkel frukost. Brödet var gott, men äggröran och kaffet var inte godkänt. Själva restaurangdelen kändes också lite som en skolmatsal.

Inredningen på hotellet kändes eftersatt.
