Óptimo para descansar
Pros:

Localização, zonas de lazer dentro e fora do alojamento, o quarto muito limpo e confortável. O melhor foi o silêncio, exatamente o que se pretende.

Cons:

As comidas. Tanto o pequeno almoço (que estava incluído) como a refeição do jantar do dia em que chegamos, nada de especial para o seu valor. Por exemplo, a comida de criança, um esparguete à bolonhesa, o molho tinha um sabor a lata terrível.

Charming hotel in a stunning location
Pros:

Very scenic hotel and staff were very friendly

Cons:

It’s on the main road and slot of cars go by during the night quite fast and a couple of boy racers sat outside the hotel very late on night of our stay and were revving up their engines purposefully to wake people which was disappointing. But not much the hotel can do about it
