Pros:

The hotel offers beautiful views of the national park. The interiors are tastefully designed in a mountain lodge style, creating a warm and harmonious atmosphere. The staff are friendly, professional, and always willing to accommodate guests' requests.

Cons:

The only downside is the limited selection of dishes available in the hotel's restaurant.

Die Pousada absolut empfehlenswert...das Restaurant jedoch nicht
Pros:

Lage: sensationell im Grünen mit tollem Blick auf den Stausee ! Auch diese Pousada mit tollen alten Gebäuden und yEinrichtungen sowie Gartenanlagen ! Kostenlose Parkplätze !

Cons:

Durchwannen sind immer ungünstig... zu eng !
Wirklich schlecht: von einem Restaurantbesuch würde ich abraten. Was wir selbst erlebt und auch beobachtet haben ! Mein Rindfleisch war absolut ungenießbar, das meiner Frau nur teilweise! Wie eine Küche so etwas anbieten kann, ist mir vollkommen unerklärlich!! Aber abschließend hat man meines wenigstens nicht berechnet.
