Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
Perfect stay
Nice clean room with balcony. All rooms have a Cabo Verde singer’s name instead of a number which is nice to learn more culture about the country. Good breakfast served on the rooftop. Friendly and helpful staff. Would definitely recommend this hotel.
