Muito agradável.
Pros:

Gostei muito de todo o Hotel, do pessoal e da localização.

Cons:

Gostei muito do tamanho do quarto e das suas condições, no entanto, não era insonorizado o suficiente pois ouvíamos o som dos outros quartos vizinhos... não consegui uma noite muito descansada...

Pros:

Acolhimento e simpatia.

Cons:

O hotel utiliza parte de salão para quartos, sem qualquer luz natural e no geral bastante escuros. O ar condicionado funciona deficientemente. A piscina é tratada com excesso de cloro.
Em resumo, a precisa de remodelação urgente com mais racional dos espaços. Por vezes, menos é mais.

Pros:

Localização.

Cons:

Pequeno almoço muito pobre para o preço cobrado.
Não tem nada de regional, Muito pouca variedade de frutas (só melão), pouca variedade de pastelaria e não mais que oi regular. Não justifica o preço cobrado pelo pequeno almoço.
