Bare minimum functionality but nothing more.
Pros:

Central location, AC worked, staff was nice.

Cons:

The Dutch room was significantly worse than advertised. There were broken decorations, stained furniture, and it was not somewhere I would like to spend time.

Juste bien placé pour dormir
Pros:

Il est très bien placé, au centre-ville et le calme

Cons:

L’hôtel est vieillissant, sans charme. On ne peut pas ouvrir ni les volets ni les fenêtres donc pas de lumière du jour.

Pros:

Atrašanās vieta laba

Cons:

Rezervējām divus nr. Viens numuriņš bija piesmēķēts. Nesmēķētājam, tas rada diskomfortu.
Otrais numuriņš atradās blakus ēkā. Rezervēju trīs personām. Pirmais nr, ko ierādīja bija tik maz, ka nesapratu, kur tur būtu iespēja izvietot papildus gultu. Palūdzu samainīt. Samainīja uz lielāku. Pati pirms tam uzkopu grīdu, jo tā bija acīmredzami netīra. Arī mēbeles bija netīras un par salauztas. Vienīgais logs, ko varēja atvērt bija uz gaiteni pa kuru staigā cilvēki.
Pēc bildēm nevar pateikt, ka peldbaseins atrodas tur pat auto stāvlaukumā. Prasītos nomainīt pie baseina zviļņus, tie jau savu laiku ir nokalpojuši uz izskatās bēdīgi, Ieteiktu arī biežāk tīrīt baseinu.

Very Dissapointed
Pros:

The location

Cons:

This property and hotel does not match the 4 stars it has and the advertised stay. Prior to details, overall the entire property is run down, clear signs of negligence, understaffed and competency of staff. Our first room assigned to us, had an absolute sting smell to it, sticky floors, bedside table missing, room fridge not operating, mosquitoes in the room. Out first impression of walking into the room was straight away - how can this be a four star facility. We contacted the manager next day of our dissatisfaction and requested to change our rooms. Only to be given a room with a smaller bed, same bathroom smell, bathroom tiles grouts have mould on them, shower towel rails broken. The breakfast provision was not up to par as one should expect from booking a 4 star hotel. We went out for all our breakfast following the first morning experience. If this was a 2 star hotel - no problem, the fact that this is rated 4 star and the price related to it doesn't justify.

Voltarei a me hospedar aqui.
Pros:

Do atendimento, funcionários aducados, simpáticos e solicitos. Tudo funcionando direitinho no quarto: bom chuveiro quente, smart TV, ar condicionado e cama confortável. Café da manhã delicioso. Ótima localização.

Cons:

Se você gosta de varanda, atente-se a opção contrada. Meu quarto não tinha, mas não foi um problema.

Great location shame about the rest
Pros:

The location was fantastic, the bed was comfortable and the shower was hot

Cons:

The room was dark and not able to open the shutters, therefore no view.
The safe did not work and were told the technical team were not available to fix it, it just needed new batteries, but have seen on a another review that their safe did not work.
The.staff had little customer service skills.
The bathroom had mould and bathroom mirror was not clean

Un peu déçue par le rapport qualité prix
Pros:

Piscine sympa
Terrasse agréable
Bien placé pour le shopping

Cons:

Le bruit … nous entendions les gens marcher dans la chambre au dessus tard le soir et tôt le matin. Les travaux juste en face marteaux piqueurs et camion à 6:30 le matin. Chambre sombre . Peu d’accessoires (savon, allumettes, bloc notes, stylos manquants)
