Pros:

Fussläufig zum Park

Cons:

Lautstärke. Man hört von unten jedes Gespräch aus dem Flur, es war dann zusätzlich in den Nächten noch eine Veranstaltung und auf meine Beschwerde hin wurde erst überhaupt gar nicht reagiert und dann mit einem …ups hätte man sie vorwarnen können… Kommentar, das ist schon sehr schade und zeugt von keinem Einsatz hier etwas beizutragen.
Das Mobiliar ist alt, dunkel braun, Park Situation sehr eng, aktuell war zusätzlich noch eine Baustelle.
Preis Leistung daher nicht zu rechtfertigen.

Valeu pela proximidade do Parque, no restante deixou a desejar!!!!!!
Pros:

A proximidade com o parque é sensacional e fica bem localizado também com relação a cidade!

Cons:

Tive dificuldade para encontrar o hotel devido a uma obra em frente! Muito confuso! Café da manhã muito simples e com poucas orações! Pode melhorar muito!

Das Personal ist absolut super und Aufmerksam und versucht alles um den Aufenthalt angenehm zu gestalten.
Pros:

Die Unterkunft war sauber und gut gelegen.

Cons:

Die Matratzen waren recht durch gelegen. Fenster nicht wirklich gedämpft. Dadurch hat man leider den Baustellenlärm sehr stark wahrgenommen von gegenüber und die Nacht um 7 Uhr vorbei. Die Kissen waren für uns absolut nicht geeignet. Zu hoch zu voll und trotzdem nicht stabil.
Das Bad war absolut sauber und das Duschgel war wirklich sehr angenehm und hat sehr gut gerochen.
Das Frühstück wird liebevoll hergerichtet und Extra Wünsche waren kein Problem.
