JAQUELINE

Disliked: Cleanliness
Pontos positivos: Ar-condicionado funcionando bem, bom espaço no quarto, opções no frigobar e chuveiro excelente. Pontos negativos: A cama de casal era composta por duas camas de solteiro unidas, o que trouxe bastante desconforto. Fomos acomodados em um quarto adaptado para cadeirantes sem necessidade, e o vaso sanitário (mais alto e com abertura frontal) foi desconfortável. O banheiro apresentava forte cheiro de esgoto; reclamamos e houve limpeza, porém o odor retornou poucos minutos depois. No café da manhã, havia mais de 10 mesas vazias com pratos sujos sem retirada, além de demora na reposição dos alimentos, aparentemente por equipe insuficiente. O hotel necessita de manutenção geral. Estive hospedado em 2017 e a experiência foi excelente, mas desta vez foi decepcionante. Apenas um elevador estava funcionando. Os corredores e a área da piscina (principalmente os vidros) precisavam de melhor limpeza. A TV do quarto não é smart.

Ótima localização, café da manhã bem farto e saboroso, staff atencioso, quartos confortáveis, porém, o ar condicionado do quarto que ficamos estava muito barulhento. Assim aconselho a checar o funcionamento do ar quando entrar no quarto e, se necessário, pedir para trocar de quarto, caso faça muito barulho, para garantir uma noite de sono tranquila.
