"Incrivel local mas com o mesmo equipamento desde a altura em que foi aberto: mesmas camas e colchoes, mesma base de duche e separadores. Escusado sera referir que esta tudo a cair aos bocados! Nem havia a delicadesa de um sabonete. Pelo preco que cobram podemos ficr no hotel mesmo ao lado com a mesma vsta e bastante mais conforto. Desilusao!!"
