Pros:

Localização, funcionários muito simpáticos ( especialmente a Carla), café da manhã com o necessário ( pães, café, suco, queijo, iogurte, cereais, bolo). Quarto 506 com uma sacada grande e com uma visão linda da cidade.

Cons:

Sabia que o quarto não tinha ar condicionado, mas fez muita falta. O calor é intenso.

Mukava loma
Pros:

Sijainti oli upea, merinäkymä aamupalan parvekkeelta, itse aamupala olisi voinut olla hieman värikkäämpi mm. kurkkua, tomaattia yms. tosin hedelmiä kyllä löytyi.

Cons:

Huonojalkaiselle Hotellin sijainti "ikävä" kun oli keskustasta nähden mäen päällä ja nousua oli pahimmillaan yli 90m

Pros:

L emplacement et le parking

Cons:

Lits très durs. Pas assez de produits toilettes et papier hygiénique que l on a dû réclamer à l accueil plusieurs fois. Petit déjeuner moyen.
Avons payé la chambre 2 mois avant près de 130 euros la nuit pour 6 nuit , 2 jours avant notre départ elle était à 73 euros.
Pour 130 euros la nuit, la prestation est honteuse.
