I was there for 5 nights and ate at rooftop restaurant for dinner. Luggage storage, 2 TVs, and a large wardrobe were a nice touch. Its location was excellent, near the airport, and in a very nice area. I visited Alforno Foz, based minutes away from the hotel, had dinner there.
They served usual breakfast, it can be much better.
