Gostei muito da acomodação do hotel, estava tudo perfeito! O quarto era confortável, limpo e bem organizado, a cama excelente para descansar, além de todos os detalhes pensados para o conforto. O atendimento também foi impecável, todos muito atenciosos e prestativos. A localização facilitou bastante a estadia e o café da manhã foi delicioso e variado. Apenas dois pontos que poderiam melhorar: o cheiro muito forte no quarto e a cortina, que poderia ser mais escura, pois por volta das 5h da manhã a claridade é bastante intensa. Fora isso, sem dúvida foi uma experiência maravilhosa que superou minhas expectativas.

A localização é boa, o quarto é confortável, os funcionários são atenciosos, porém as trocas de toalhas a cada dois dias e as roupas de cama a cada três é um absurdo, no banheiro não tem suporte para papel higiênico, meu quarto foi o de n°41no qual o box e a pia estavam com vazamentos
