Nothing

Very dirty, big holes in the floor. No response when I sent a message. Ridiculous overpriced. I have stayed at more than a hundred hotels and guesthouses around the world, this is the worst place I have ever stayed. I will never use booking again as they take no responsibility. Better to use lonely planet or shoestring as they have actually stayed on the hotels they review.

Hotel good!

Do tamanho da cama e limpeza

O ventilador não estava funcionando, faltou um frigorífico nos quartos.

Não recomendo, valor altíssimo para o que entregam que é 0

4.0

O edifício onde se encontrava o quarto era em outro local (isso não foi mencionado na booking.com), as toalhas estavam sujas, o ventilador de teto parecia que ia cair sobre a minha cabeça, as janelas não fecham por completo (sim, dormimos com janelas destrancadas), a sanita é nojenta (o assento a cair)… não recomendo. E para não esquecer do pequeno almoço onde mencionam que há um local para ir mas eles deixam na sua porta na noite anterior.

Really good price for a one-Star hotel

8.0

As I booked the hotel at very short notice, the price was very reasonable. Everything was as promised. The room was ok. The breakfast was simple and the same every morning, but there was plenty of food for me. Good location - a very nice cafe and a Spar store very close by.

It could have been a bit cleaner, the furniture could be a bit newer. The WC with a shower was very tiny - it could be complicated for a larger person. The stairs were quite steep, but overall not a major problem. For a one-star hotel not bad. I have seen much worse.
