Cons:

No dia em que chegámos, já não pudemos usufruir do spa porque nos disseram que estava cheio. Íamos com o objetivo de descansar no spa. No dia seguinte, fomos lá e era extremamente barulhento e pequeno.
Relação qualidade-preço não compensou.

Pros:

Staff, limpeza, comodidade, pequeno almoço e piscina interior apesar de água não estar à temperatura ideal para a estação do ano

Cons:

A cobrança de 2€ adicionais quando na reserva já tinha pago as taxas do município e que foram aumentadas novamente
Não é muito mas é errado cobrarem duas vezes.

Bom hotel, excelente café da manhã, pessoal gentil.
Pros:

Café da manhã e restaurante excelentes.

Cons:

A garagem oferecida é um diferencial positivo. Mas a garagem em si é muito ruim, com dificuldade enorme para manobras, pouca iluminação e falta de indicações.
