Liked: Amenities
This place is worth it, as the rooms were very hospitable and the staff is very accommodating. My Spanish is not the best but we had very little issues communicating. However, if you have a guest or delivery coming to you, then it can be challenging to direct said individuals as the entrance is on the opposite side of the building from which the GPS takes you to.

Muita boa, mas se tivesse um frigobar seria melhor, bem localizado proximo a supermercado, lojas e uns 2 a 3km do centro histórico. Os atendentes são muito prestativos nota mil para eles.
