Não está equiparado a um 5 estrelas
Pros:

O pequeno-almoço é a paisagem.

Cons:

O facto de não ter sauna nem banho turco. Tem apenas uma piscina interior, que por acaso não estava nas melhores condições de higiene

Muito boa estadia
Pros:

A estética clássica é o aproveitamento da casa antiga inserida no Douro ; as comodidades , o spa .

Cons:

O pequeno almoço não dispõe de leite quente , ou meias de leite / galão etc. que faz parte do pequeno almoço comum português . Dispõe apenas de umas máquinas de café que tambem servem leite ( que normalmente é leite em pó ou em reservatórios de máquina ) o que não se coaduna com o pequeno almoço de um hotel de 5 estrelas . Dispunham de uma jarra de leite frio mas que estava estragado
