I liked the lake view at the entrance. I did notice the building was new, but the paint finishes at the trim on the floor was a bit poor.

Great hotel for guests looking to stay away from the downtown area.
Contemporary and eco deco style.
Staff and service is best.
The hotel offers delicious with a good variety of fruits, local and international food for breakfast.
The rooms are very clean. We stayed in the room with the view to the Marina that has a private balcony.
I would definitely recommend this hotel.

Brand new hotel, super nice decoration. Room was very comfortable, nice view of the Marina, amazing breakfast, very friendly personnel. Really recommend! Just FYI, it’s not very close to the city center, you must have a car.

Os funcionários por outro lado são extremamente atrnciosos

A pia da cozinha estava entupida, tentaram desentupir e não conseguiram, dificultou muito a limpeza das mamadeiras do nosso filho…
os funcionários são mega educados! E nossa estadia foi ótima! Ótimo café da manhã e restaurante
