Excelente hotel para se descansar entre conexões.
Pros:

Gostei de tudo no hotel, muito bonito, limpo e confortável. Quarto amplo, colchão e roupa de cama e banho ótimas, banheiro grande e funcional, com ótimo chuveiro. Café da manhã excelente. Hotel com decoração de bom gosto, limpo e organizado. Fica ao lado de um mini shopping com algumas pequenas lojas e locais para comer. O LUPO restaurante-galeria nos surpreendeu positivamente tanto pelo atendimento quando pela comida.

Cons:

Não gostei do atendimento da recepção no check in. O atendente poderia ter sido mais simpático e não o foi e poderia ter nos dado um quarto melhor (nos destinou um dos últimos quartos de um longo corredor, com vistas para o estacionamento e não para a cidade, como descrito no site da Booking). Também não gostei do atendimento de uma das moças da recepção do café da manhã, que não se esforçou para conseguir um bom local para nos sentarmos. Disse que não havia nenhum outro local vago, apesar de haver. Após falarmos com a outra recepcionista, ela sim nos assentou em um lugar melhor.

Good but quality has decreased since past time
Pros:

Wonderful breakfast, nice pool and friendly staff. The gym was also nice.

Cons:

There were bedbugs, after some time it seems like rooms are needing deep cleansing. Also, one of the maids had a kinda rude behavior which I thought it was rare for an hotel of this level.

Beau golf, mais hôtel sans intérêt et sans charme.
Pros:

Très beau golf. Belle piscine. Bon petit-déjeuner

Cons:

Excentré, pas grand chose autour. Golf fee trop cher. Espresso payant quand on paie la formule petit-déjeuner !!! Pas beaucoup de charme à cet hôtel.
