Fiz uma viagem a trabalho e precisa de uma estetoscópio mínima que me atendesse. Só consegui isso pegando um quarto de casal, pois o quarto de solteiro não posso uma mesa adequada para trabalhar, esta foi a única limitação. O local é muito bom, funcionários prestativos, boa cana. O chuveiro poderia ser melhor, mas a facilidade de estar próximo a praia e o fácil acesso a supermercados, lojas, restaurantes etc compensa.

Excelente experiência!

A minha experiência no Smart Hotel foi excelente! Ótima localização, e o quarto era muito confortável, bem equipado e silencioso (perfeito para descansar após um dia de passeio pela cidade/praia e relaxar antes da realização da prova de um concurso). A limpeza dos ambientes estava impecável: desde as áreas comuns até o quarto e o banheiro, tudo sempre muito organizado e agradável. Um destaque especial vai para a equipe: todos os funcionários foram extremamente gentis, prestativos e atenciosos durante toda a estadia. E o café da manhã? Simplesmente maravilhoso! Variedade, sabor e um cuidado evidente na apresentação. Recomendo sem hesitar e, com certeza, voltarei!

Hotel de razoável para bom. Pia pequena, tendo em cima uma prateleira adaptada, muito inconveniente, com riscos de uma pessoa se machucar. Solicitamos a troca de apartamento, devido ao odor forte no ralo do banheiro na unidade 117.

Boa hospedagem

Já tinha me hospedado no hotel antes e o avaliei muito bem, porém desta vez percebi que o hotel decaiu em qualidade. O quarto que nós ofereceram estava com lixeira avariada e com mau cheiro, pedimos pra trocar e nos deram outro que também tinha odor de esgoto. O café da manhã é bom e a equipe que o serve é excelente.
