Firstly, even though they have blaring on all websites that they have internet available, while I was there, there was absolutely no internet. This was the worst thing that could happen to someone who is on a business trip and depends on the internet for his meetings and correspondences
Secondly, the breakfast was nothing to write home about. Cheaper hotels do a much better job. This was the first hotel where (i) they would fry you "only one egg" (ii) no omelet; (iii) no chocolate;and (iv) only one sausage per guest. You are pretty much left with just bread and butter if you do not take coffee or tea or juice filled with ice.
Thirdly, dont even bother getting there before 12noon because they will not check you in! So if you are coming from an arduous laborious voyage, and you arrive the hotel at 11.30am, you will still have to wait until 12noon!
But be that as it may, the staff were cordial, they spoke good English which was fundamental for me because I cannot even pretend to speak Portuguese. The room was clean - but in need of renovation; and the location was prety central.
In conclusion, it is a good place to stay if you are on vacation and/or are looking for a place to relax. But if you are on a business trip and have to have a good breakfast and high speed internet, be very prepared for the absence of internet. ...and oh I forgot to mention, I was also formed that when the internet does work, if is not free! So you might as well buy a Vodafone Modem.
