Não foi aquilo que escolhi.
Pros:

Os funcionários foram simpáticos. Mas acabei por não ficar hospedado.

Cons:

O ar condicionado estava avariado. A pessoa que estava na recepção apenas me disponibilizava um ventilador. Num dia de 40°C na rua, 31°C temperatura ambiente no quarto. ... Pedi o meu dinheiro de volta e segui o meu caminho.

Kann ich nicht empfehlen, die 4 Sterne sind eine Übertreibung
Pros:

Nichts besonderes

Cons:

Personal unprofessionell, im SPA Hotel sollte man wenigstens den Pool frei nutzen können, TV nur 4-5 Kanäle, Klimaanlage hat nicht funktioniert, die ganze Nacht laute Frösche

Lovely peaceful staff. Restaurant staff were lovely and chatty and helpful
Pros:

Peaceful, clean, good location for my house hunting in the local area.

Cons:

Access to an open bar was limited, but it is out of season so not a massive issue.
