Wij vonden het voor ons de minste accommodatie.
Pros:

We zijn daar 2 nachten geweest en vonden het zwembad erg mooi. Op de plek zelf niets te doen.

Cons:

Het bed veel te hard en het avondeten in het restaurant was niet bijzonder.

Cons:

Voltámos este ano ao mesmo hotel porque tivemos uma experiência excelente no ano passado. Na altura, ficámos no primeiro andar e correu tudo lindamente, sem qualquer problema, por isso decidimos repetir a estadia.
Infelizmente, este ano a experiência foi bastante diferente. Ficámos no terceiro andar e tivemos alguns problemas relacionados com o barulho.
Na primeira noite, a partir das 6h da manhã, começou a ouvir-se um barulho muito forte, semelhante ao de um gerador. Não sabemos exatamente de onde vinha nem a que equipamento estava associado, mas o ruído era bastante intenso e acabou por perturbar o nosso descanso.
Na segunda noite, tivemos outro problema: o casal do quarto ao lado começou, por volta das 6h da manhã, a fazer bastante barulho, com gritos e gemidos, como se estivesse num motel e não num hotel onde existem outros hóspedes a tentar descansar. Foi uma situação bastante desagradável, principalmente por ter acontecido tão cedo.
É uma pena, porque no ano passado tivemos uma estadia impecável e ficámos precisamente com vontade de voltar. Desta vez, infelizmente, o descanso ficou bastante prejudicado pelos episódios de ruído.
No geral, continuamos a gostar do hotel e da localização, mas esperamos que situações deste género sejam melhor controladas, principalmente durante a madrugada e nas primeiras horas da manhã.
