Pros:

Please note that this review is for the Hotel Solar do Bom Jesus in Santa Cruz - I was asked to move to this hotel when Hotel Amparo requested that I move to their sister hotel due to short-notice issues with the hotel. This was fine for me and it was handled very well by both hotels.

Pros:

Hôtel à un prix raisonnable, à proximité du centre (restaurants, magasins, bus…) et du front de mer. Personnel chaleureux. Il faut trouver une place de stationnement dans la ville.

Todo bastante bien, lo único malo es que al grifo de la ducha le faltaba el cambiador de grifo a alcachofa y no pude ducharme.

Juste pour des petits séjours
Pros:

Propre mais ancien, les lits ne sont pas très confortables, la télé ne fonctionne pas, une des lumières des toilettes ne fonctionne pas, mais l'hôtel est très propre, la dame du petit déjeuner est très serviable et agréable.

Pros:

This might be the worst hotel l've ever stayed in. The room was so filthy it looked like Helen Keller had been in charge of cleaning. There's no way anyone could see the state it was in and think it was acceptable. Stains, dirt, BLACK MOLD and a smell that made us question if the place had ever been cleaned. My girlfriend and I had to black out just to survive the night.
Free Parking is a joke-it's a 10-minute walk away, which makes dragging your luggage through a sketchy area even worse. Honestly, you'd be better off sleeping on the streets with the homeless. At least you'd know what you're getting into.
Stay anywhere else. This place is a nightmare.

No se alojen aquí
Pros:

Terrible, ni en la casa del terror. Lo único salvable fue el desayuno.
La habitación olía a cañería, en la serie Cuéntame eran más modernas las instalaciones, el secador no funcionaba, se escuchaban ruidos de todas las habitaciones, la cama de muelles es de lo mas incómodo de las estancias donde he estado alojado. No lo recomiendo con todos estos factores.
