Pros:

Cons:

I was disappointed with my stay at this hotel.

When I checked into my room, it was obvious that the bathroom had not been properly cleaned. There was short hair left throughout the bathroom, which is completely unacceptable and raised serious concerns about the hotel's hygiene standards.

I reported the issue to the front desk, but the response was equally disappointing. No one apologised for the inconvenience. Instead, they sent someone to the room over an hour later. The "cleaning" consisted of simply rinsing the affected areas with water, no cleaning products were used, and there was still no apology from the staff.

What frustrated me most was the complete lack of customer service. There was no acknowledgment of the problem, no apology, and no commercial gesture to make up for the inconvenience.

As a result, I decided to cut my stay short and move to a different hotel. I would not stay here again and do not recommend it.

Guter Standard, aber für vier Sterne **** ist noch etwas Luft nach oben. Leicht überteuert.
Pros:

Das Hotel wird vor allem von portugiesischen Pauschaltouristen genutzt, und entsprechend ist das Angebot auf sie ausgerichtet. War für uns aber kein Problem. Kein Kampf um Liegestühle am Pool +++ Das Frühstücksbuffet ist sehr gut und der Kaffee durchaus genießbar. Die Treppe hoch gibt es auch Einkaufsmöglichkeiten (Bäckerei, Supermarkt), wenn man sich selbst versorgen möchte. Premium Zimmer hat eine kleine Terrasse mit Tisch und Stühlen, was nett ist. Das Bett ist riesig ++++ Toller, üppiger Garten.

Cons:

Etwas in die Jahre gekommen und Zimmer etwas muffig. Bettwäsche zu klein für das riesige Bett.

Pas grand chose à visiter dans la ville et autour. Et trop de vent.
Pros:

la piscine non chauffée

Cons:

les alentours de l'hotel. Il n'y a rien à part les taxis. L'hôtel ne propose rien comme activité. Pas de soirée à thème ou des artisans locaux qui pourraient venir vendre leurs articles dans l'hôtel.
