Guest review

8.0

Simpatia dos funcionários, boa relação qualidade/preço, quarto espaçoso.

Ter de ligar para abrirem o portão, a cada entrada/saída de carro.

Boa estadia

7.0

Das comodidades exteriores (uma piscina enorme e área desportiva - court de ténis/ basquete / futebol) dos quais não pudemos disfrutar por causa do tempo fresco. Aprecio também o tamanho dos quartos, que permite a uma familia de 4 ficar confortavelmente alojada no mesmo estúfio.

De não terem avisado durante o cjeck-in que de noite os portões fecham e é preciso ligar para um numeto de telemóvel específico para entrar. Acabámos por ficar imenso tempo à espera que abrissem o portão para entrarmos, à noite, mesmo depois de termos tocado indistentemente à campaínha e ligado para a reveção. Também não havia nenhuma indicação no exterior. O pequeno almoço é um pouco básico, resume-se ao essencial: pão, bolo, leite, café, chá, chocolate, sumo, cereais, iogurte, compotas, fiambre, queijo, manteiga.

Super sorpresa lungo il mio cammino

10.0

Grandissima struttura appena ai margini della città con tantissime camere a disposizione, posizionata lungo una pista ciclabile, ideale per chi come me percorreva il Portogallo in bicicletta. Ho avuto la fortuna di trovare zero "camerati" e quindi praticamente avevo un mini loft solo per me (a prezzi veramente bassi)

dovrebbero pubblicizzarli di più posti belli come questo
