Avoid disappointment stay elsewhere

This was a disappointing stay. Reception staff were unfriendly, did not help with luggage. Worse still the main reception person was smoking a shisha pipe in the common areas and in another occasion was picking the skin off his feet in the customer area . Ash trays were left with cigarette butts. There is no lift and the stairs to the next floor are dangerous, there’s no hand rail except for the last few steps. The stair asr made of recycled timber and have a number of holes in them. The beds were hard and very uncomfortable. The hotel is up quite a steep hill and a distance from the main part of town it would be difficult without a car . I cannot understand how this is rated as 4 star I don’t know how hotels.com is aligned with this property

Perfeito para conhecer Palau e Ilha Madalena

Hotel bem conservado, limpo, silencioso, com estacionamento fácil na região gratuito e uma equipe muito atenciosa e simpática. Duas observações: 1) o banheiro tinha vidro liso na janela para a rua, que não dava privacidade, mas foi substituído no primeiro dia por texturizado que ficou perfeito, reestabelendo a privacidade.2) a informação do valor do café da manhã está desatualizada, são 15 euros por dia, por pessoa e não 5 euros como consta do site e descrição na plataforma Hotéis.

Unterkunft oben auf einem steilen Hügel. Nicht einfach zu Fuß zu erreichen dafür Sonne Aussicht von den Zimmern auf den Hafen. Zimmer sind klein, kein Platz den Koffer aufzumachen, nur auf dem Bett möglich. Frühstück sehr einfach gehalten.
