Hade inte bott här igen.
Pros:

Det hade kunnat vara ett riktigt fint hotell, om det togs hand om. Man ser hur förfallen hotellet är och att det inte tas hand om. Det ligger ialf nära restauranger och butiker.

Cons:

Personalen är otroligt otrevlig, långsamma och har noll service mind. De hånskrattar och pratar illa om gäster. Jag ser inte ut att vara från Kap Verde men min far är därifrån och jag talar flytande Creol. Vilket personalen inte antog och jag hörde då hur de pratade illa om gäster och även mitt sällskap.

Det fanns både rost o mögel i rummen. Fick en barnsäng till min 6 månaders bebis som var rostig, vinglig och såg ut att kollapsa när som helst.

Väldigt tråkigt att de inte tar hand om stället och även så om gästerna.

Muito agradável.
Pros:

Gostámos muito da simpatia do staff, do hotel em si, muito bonito e localizado numa zona estratégica da ilha. A praia de areia preta à frente do hotel deu-nos bons fins de tarde.

Cons:

Apenas duas coisas a apontar: A água do banho e o wi-fi. A água quente durava pouco mais de 2/3 minutos. O wi-fi é muito fraco, só se apanha na recepção e é muito mau.

Pros:

El entorno tranquilo del hotel, en primera fila de playa, a unos 20-25 minutos andando de la zona del puerto de Porto Novo.
Las instalaciones en general, algo antiguas, pero funcionales y todo correcto. Las habitaciones amplias, con terraza. No funcionaba el ascensor.
El desayuno completo y bien presentado.
