Pros:

Da simpatia dos funcionários.

Cons:

O hotel precisa de reforma, a decoração está usada e gasta, assim como a pintura dos armários do quarto. O AC não funciona bem, não refresca o ambiente.

Si vuelvo a Porto lo elegiré
Pros:

El desayuno incluido es una pasada.
Tiene de todo.

Cons:

Qué hubiera bañera, es un 4 estrellas y con lo peligrosas que son.
El agua salía ardiendo, cuando le dabas al frío.

Aceitável
Pros:

A limpeza era esplêndida e os funcionários também. O pequeno almoço muito variado e sempre fresco.

Cons:

Infelizmente a nossa estadia foi durante uns dias especialmente quentes. Ligamos o ar acondicionado, no entanto de nada serviu. Em vez de enfriar, apenas fazias circular o ar quente, mesmo estando na temperatura mínima. E este apenas trabalhava bem na velocidade máxima, caso contrario, uma das elicies da ventoinha tocava no interior e fazia um barulho horrendo.

Für einen Kurzaufenthalt in Porto sehr zu empfehlen, aber nicht über 1 Woche
Pros:

Es hatte von allem

Cons:

Es hätte abwechslungsreicher sein können und die Kaffemaschinen funktionieren nicht richtig:
Das Hotel wäre renovierungsbedürftig.

Pros:

GOSTEI , SÒMENTE DAS PRATICAS E GENTILEZAS DOS FUNCIONÁRIOS ! CERTAMENTE PRESSIONADOS PELOS " CHEFES" NADA FALAM NO CHECK-IN SÔBRE O GRAVE PROBLEMA DO NÃO FUNCIONAMENTO DO AR CONDICIONADO NOS QUARTOS !

Cons:

EXATAMENTE DO GRANDE DESCONFORTO PELA FALTA DO AR CONDICIONADO E , COM AS JANELAS BLOQUEADAS QUE , SÓ SÃO DESTRAVADAS POR UM FUNCIONÁRIO APÓS RECLAMAÇÃO ! PAGA-SE AS DIÁRIAS NO CHECK-IN, VALOR NÍVEL 04 ESTRELAS E , SE DESCOBRE DEPOIS QUE AS 04 ESTRELAS , SÃO MAL APLICADAS ! LAMENTÁVEL ! ESPECIALMENTE , NESTE CASO , O BOOKING.COM DEVE IMPOR AO HOTEL QUE INFORME , PREVIAMENTE , AO HÓSPEDE O PROBLEMA COM O AR CONDICIONADO QUE ENCONTRARÁ ! LEMBRO QUE A TEMPERATURA AMBIENTE CHEGA AOS 30°C , E NO QUARTO PASSA DOS 35/40°C ! SUFOCO !
