Ottima soluzione qualità/prezzo
Pros:

Sorpresa dai tanti servizi offerti per essere un 2 stelle, incluso un mini frigo.
Estasiata di trovare finalmente un bidet!
Linea di cortesia monouso e biancheria forniti.
Ottimo livello pulizia camera.
Disponibili a richiesta: asciugacapelli, boiler e ferro da stiro.
Camera ampia e dotata ogni comfort.
Posizione strategica per raggiungere il Porto (per le escursioni in barca), e a 10 minuti a piedi dalla spiaggia.
Fuori dalle strade della movida, riposo notturno garantito.

Cons:

La posizione può essere scomoda invece per chi desidera raggiungere a piedi la stazione, treni o pullman.
Ma è un ottimo compromesso per tutto quello che offre. E con un modico taxi si rimedia.
Unico appunto: l’AC non funzionava ma avevano già dotato la camera di un ventilatore verticale. Per le temperature di questo periodo era ok.
Frigobar rumoroso, può dare problemi a chi ha sonno leggero

Pros:

Große, einfache Zimmer, wir hatten Glück und hatten einen Balkon mit Meerblick :) An der Rezeption konnten wir uns (kostenlos!) Strand-Badezücher ausleihen.

Cons:

Leider konnte man den Balkon/Meerblick nicht "fix" buchen.

Pros:

Personal war sehr freundlich!

Cons:

Ich find die Zimmer könnten renoviert werden und die sehen nicht aus wie auf den Fotos. Sieht aus als wäre dort schon seit Jahren nicht mehr renoviert worden :(. Und ein Hotelgast hat mir Angst gemacht.
