Bom custo benefício

Foi agradável. Ótimo café da manhã. O elevador era antigo e teve problemas. Me colocaram no último andar sendo q eu tenho problema no joelho. Isso foi desagradável. O hotel não estava com todos os quartos ocupados. O banheiro era de cortina e molhava quando se usava o chuveiro

É um bom custo benefício. Ficamos em um quarto família, mas tivemos problema com o ar condicionado que ficava pingando e foi solucionado. Café da manhã bom, inclusive com opções pra veganas.

De passagem por Petrolina

Hotel muito bom, amplo ,com estacionamento, bem decorado. Café da manhã excelente, com comidas típicas da região. Sobre o quarto, bom , porém a cama do quarto que ficamos era bem dura,chegando a ser desconfortável. E os lençóis brancos bastante encardidos.
