The hotel belongs in the meantime to the Brazil Eastern standard Time Western group. The hotel is very old. Inside it looks more comfortable. So one imagines 40er/50er years hotels in the city. The rooms are comfortable also, but rather usselig. The breakfast is catastrophic situation. The breakfast room is located on the fourth floor rooftop Club is a rough, close, an uncomfortable room without flair. Everything seemed very improvised. The breakfast is nothing special. Everything rather 08/15. The location of the hotel is very centrally located. Directly at sight of the castle and thus in the middle in the center. … read more

The service in the hotel was generally good. Our double room was only cursorily cleaned once during 5 days, we regularly got new towels. Once the service was forgotten completely and we had to leave the room at 6 p.m. so that it could still be cleaned. Cleanliness was not given in the double room, in the single room it was ok. In the breakfast room the service and the cleanliness were 100%.The breakfast was great. We've already eaten worse breakfast in 4-5 star hotels. There was no gastronomy apart from the breakfast room.As described above, it was simple and not evenly clean.We traveled as … read more
