Estadia excecional com um imprevisto
Pros:

O sossego. A simpatia e disponibilidade dos funcionários. A vista do quarto e a sua beleza e simplicidade. Pequeno almoço pequeno, mas com tudo o que era preciso e muito bom. Jantar agradável. Trilhos perto, restaurantes tradicionais e muito bons e verdadeiras maravilhas naturais nas redondezas.

Cons:

Infelizmente, na segunda noite, devido a um problema técnico, a água quente deixou de funcionar, o que nos impossibilitou de tomar banho. Tentaram arranjo mas sem sucesso, pelo que tivemos de mudar de quarto. Foi-nos oferecido 2 hipóteses, ou um quarto no The Nest, sendo que era mais pequeno e mais antigo ou então um quarto no Emocional Hotel, que foi o que optamos. Ficamos muito bem instalados, embora em termos de decoração e estilo não era do nosso maior agrado. São situações imprevisíveis e compreendemos isso, o que não deixou de trazer um lado um pouco desagradável à nossa estadia, que até então estava a ser excecional.
