Central em Icaraí
Pros:

O atendimento foi muito cortês, o hotel está relativamente perto de zonas de interesse turístico, e a cama bem confortável.

Cons:

O sanitário precisa de revisão, não tinha sequer um local de apoio pra colocar um sabonete ou xampu dentro do box, e precisa de mais manutenção. O ar condicionado era extremamente barulhento.
