I love the location, so close to the beach, very nice roof terrace although it is small. The only disadvantage is the reception which has only a few members of staff so we had to wait one hour for check-in.

Eu sempre escolho Novotel, e os motivos são, local, segurança e o atendimento. Este mês tive um problema com os atendentes da noite de Domingo para Segunda 8 de Dezembro lara o dia 9. 2 mulheres e um rapaz. Arrogantes e mal humorados. Mas Novotel tem 2as pessoas que sabem tratar os clientes, Clay e Roberto do cafe da manhã. 2 queridos. Exemplos de profissionais. E toda a galera do café. O menino que ajuda com os passeios. Enfim, recomendo. Mas tem uma galerinha que precisa aprender a tratar o cliente.
