Staff are very nice and accommodating. They helped me with my Portuguese and knew what I wanted each morning. Additionally I developed a tooth ache and they got me a dentist who spoke English 15 minutes later. The following day they checked up on me! I recommend them highly!

It was my sisters birthday weekend trip and this hotel was a diamond in the rough. We could not have expected such beautiful finishes in every area of the hotel. Very impressed. And the staff at reception could not have been more helpful. The young man at reception took us through the activities available, sightseeing trips, best shopping areas and places of interest.

The room was clean and tidy. However, the layout and practicality of the room was a little bit of an inconvenience. Wardrobe hangers were available, but you couldn't move them anywhere where the air is flowing, as they were fixed to one location (Hostile architecture). We couldn't hang our jackets to dry after getting soaked from the rain.
