Check in staff where friendly but exceptionally slow. Aircon in the room blows cool air and it worked out better to open the window. The room has a patio but its locked with no key available to open it. The bar / restaurant had a closed sign in front of it at 1330 in the afternoon when lunch was advertised as available. No Bar staff on duty and eventually one of the house keeping ladies offered to help after 15 mins of standing around. Tables were covered in ants on the Saturday morning breakfast service. Definitely wont be staying there again.

Bom custo x benefício

Hotel com ótima estrutura, quartos espaçosos, chuveiro bom, cama confortável. O quarto possui chaleira elétrica e demais produtos para fazer café ou chá, ar condicionado, cofre, secador de cabelo e demais produtos para o banho. Apenas senti falta de um frigobar. O café da manhã é grátis e é muito bom, com bastante variedades e com comidas saborosas. O restaurante tb é bom e o serviço de bar tb. Jantamos as duas noites lá e ficamos muito satisfeitos. Existe um shopping center bem próximo ao hotel e ela oferecem um serviço de leva e traz gratuito até lá, é só falar com o motorista que fica estacionado em frente à recepção do hotel. A localização não é das melhores, pois fica mais ou menos na metade do caminho entre o aeroporto e o centro da cidade. Para quem, como nós, vai ficar uns 2 dias na cidade não chega a ser um problema.
