Nice gardens and hotel but no air conditioning
Room was noisy with windows open. It was very hot and we arrived late and windows were not open to cool the room. No air conditioning and no offer of fan.

Os funcionarios da recepção foram maravilhosos, mas a manager do restaurante foi muito rude quando pedimos uma mesa mais aconchegante. Não voltaria lá.
Mas definivamente recomendo o hotel, foi tudo perfeito, todos os funcionarios foram muito atenciosos e educados
