Estadia agradável.
Pros:

- A simpatia e disponibilidade dos colaboradores.
- O conforto da cama e o silêncio dentro do quarto.
- O pequeno almoço - bastante diversificado e bastante completo.

Cons:

- Parqueamento - na garagem, muito pouco funcional. Acessibilidade e espaço de manobra díficil tendo em conta o espaço disponível.
- Controlo de luminosidade do quarto. As cortinas não impedem que a luz entre no quarto assim que o dia nasça.

Good location, nice staff
Pros:

Location was great and the staff was really nice!

Cons:

Breakfast had always the same options :/ the bar downstairs did not have a lot of options in the menu, and the service there was a bit slow.
The carpet in the corridor was full of stains. The room looked clean, but walking around barefoot left my feet really dirty

Pros:

Strávili jsme v hotelu 3 dny, vše bylo tak jak bylo popsáno v popisu hotelu. Personál ochotný, hučela nám klimatizace, bez problémů nám vyměnili pokoj. Snídaně odpovídající kategorii, průběžně doplňováno a kafe nám opravdu chutnalo, což se nedá říci o všech hotelích.

Pros:

Gute Lage in der Nähe der Casa de Musica, von hier aus gute Verkehranbindung per Bus / Metro in die Innenstadt oder auch in andere Orte.

Cons:

Kissen waren für mein Empfinden sehr unbequem und die Tiefgarage ist zeimlich eng. Mit SUV oder Combi hat man echt Probleme, sich dort zu bewegen, maximal einen Mietwagen der Kompaktklasse (z.B. Golf) nehmen.

Se tiver valor e pudermos com essa avaliação, ajudar outros hospedes, em sua escolha, Indicamos !!!
Pros:

De tudo !!!! Não é a toa que essa é nossa segunda estadia. em 2 anos seguidos. Esperamos voltar no próximo ano.

Cons:

Da atendente que nos recepcionou quando do check-in, que não foi muito cordial nem muito paciente com 2 velhos chegando de uma viagem longa (15 horas de madrugada) e não perceberam que o quarto reservado era o mesmo, que foi solicitado. Foi por demais demais ríspida.
