El punto fuerte es el personal.
El hotel estaba en obras y olía muchísimo a pintura por todas partes, tuvimos que solicitar una solución y nos cambiaron de habitación.
La ubicación del hotel no está mal pero anda escondida.
Desayuno muy justito para un 4*

El hotel muy cerca del centro, en el centro prácticamente. El lugar muy bohemio, las calle citas, la iluminación. El servicio del barco también bien, fácil de coger y con guía y todo. Experiencia muy recomendable. En un par de días se ve todo

El personal es muy amable y el desayuno está bien. El hotel está bien situado.
Las habitaciones son un poco básicas para un hotel de 4 estrellas, tienen poca luz, fuimos en invierno y no conseguimos poner el aire acondicionado para que diera calor y algún detalle más podría mejorarse

Buenas tardes, a todo el que me quiera leer.
Aveiro es ciudad para cisitar en epoca estival el tiempo en noviembre horrible, borrasca tras borrasca.
La escursion del barco no se pudo realuzar y se perdio aun estando denteo del paquete vacacional, la.cimpañua que debia realizarla nos dio largas con la escusa del mal tiempo ( pese a que la vimos salir con un grupo), y no se pudo realuzar ducha actividad.
Cambiar de compañia de escursion por los canales.

La ubicación es muy buena, el personal del bufet de desayuno muy amable y atento y la habitación correcta
"We spent the first night in a room on the first floor that is apparently being renovated and the carpet smelled awful and had some water leakage issues... but well, we thought the whole hotel was like that, so we didn't say anything. It was them at breakfast on the second day who told us they were changing our room and they put us in one on the third floor that is completely renovated, the floor is very well, more modern and without carpet. So, except for the first night, the rest were very good."
La primera noche la pasamos en una habitación que es de la primera planta y por lo visto la están reformando y la moqueta olía fatal y tenía algún problema de filtración de agua… pero bueno, pensamos que todo el Hotel era así, así que no dijimos nada. Fueron ellos mismos en el desayuno del segundo día nos dijeron que nos cambiaban de habitación y ya nos pusieron en una de la tercera planta que está toda reformada la planta y muy bien, más moderna y sin moqueta
Así que, exceptuando la primera noche, las demás muy bien

El hotel en general está correcto. La habiración en la me alojé era correcta sin más. Lo mejor, el personal, el parking que es enorme y la zona de desayuno junto con el desayuno, muy agradable. Bastante abundante y muy cómodo... tipo bufet.
They should give the rooms a facelift...they look a bit outdated. They run out of hot water when the hotel is full.
Deberían darle una vuelta a las habitaciones...se les ve un pelín anticuadas. Se quedan sin agua caliente cuando el hotel está lleno.

Hola
Portugal precioso
Una zona que invitó a ir a todo el mundo. El hotel una pasada, precioso muy bien ubicado. impresionante, precioso
The only thing was the room, very old everything and the bed, you can't have a room of a four star hotel in that condition, it needs to be renovated.
Lo único ha sido la habitación, muy viejo todo y la cama, no se puede tener una habitación de un hotel cuatro estrellas en esa condición, hay que renovar

Experiencia barata....
The room had humidity problems, it smelled very bad. In addition, we were given the room right next to the elevator that beeps every time it is called and did not let us rest. At breakfast time, there were many people waiting for a table because the dining room was small. Anyway, this kind of offers always have their negative side.
La habitación tenía problemas de humedad, olía muy mal. Además nos la dieron justo al lado del ascensor que hace un pitido cada vez que lo llaman y no nos dejó descansar. A la hora del desayuno, nos juntabamos muchas personas a la espera de mesa ya que el comedor era pequeño. En fin, este tipo de ofertas siempre tienen su parte negativa.
