Un moment très plaisant
Pros:

la vue depuis notre chambre, l'emplacement de l'hôtel dans la ville de Mindelo, la gentillesse et le professionnalisme du personnel

Cons:

Le seul bémol c'est la proximité d'un immeuble en construction qui fait du bruit et un peu de poussière mais Mindélo est en perpétuel changement et il y a de nombreux chantiers immobiliers

Perfekt für Stadttrip und auch nah am Stadtstrand
Pros:

Blick aus dem Zimmer direkt auf den Hafen - super schöne Kulisse, es gab einen Transfer zum Fähre Terminal, das war super.

Der Aufenthalt war ok. Wenn man allerdings gerne mal ausschläft, ist das Hotel momentan nicht zu empfehlen.
Pros:

Zimmer war ok. Das Fühstück war für Kapverdische Verhältnisse gut. Die Küche ansonsten war sehr gut.

Cons:

Je nach Personal das arbeitet geht sehr lange bis leere Sachen beim Frühstücksbuffet aufgüllt wieder aufgefüllt werden. Ebenfalls ist die Wartezeit beim Abendessen recht lang. Das hat mich allerdings nicht sehr gestört da ich Zeit hatte.
Die Baustellen nebenan sind sehr laut. Um 8.00 Uhr geht es los und an Schlaf ist nicht mehr zu denken.
