FABULOSO
Pros:

Tudo neste hotel é fabuloso desde o estacionamento gratuito frente ao hotel, à localização mesmo no centro da cidade, a simpatia deliciosa da recepcionista, o conforto, asseio e agradabilidade do quarto, o pequeno almoço (achei delicioso o pormenor do guardanapo de linho). Quando voltar a Braga escolherei de novo este hotel e aconselho todos a fazerem o mesmo.
