Não gostei.

A cama é horrível, fiquei com dor. O pescoço, a cama é bipartida, afunda, é horrível, o café da manhã é fraco e peguei o quarto com o banheiro sujo, com um tufo de cabelo. Ponto positivo, o atendimento do pessoal da portaria, e do restaurante.

Estadia razoável

Razoável.Apesar das informações escritas no papel quando do check-in, esperava-se que as informações fossem passadas verbalmente, gerando uma iteração e cordialidade. Cama de casal formada por duas camas de solteiro, formando uma vala no meio. Salvo apenas pela acessibilidade e estacionamento.
