4/10 Poor

Disliked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The hotel is conveniently located. The staff was helpful for arranging taxis, storing baggage. The breakfast was Cabo Verde average. The hotel and the room were not in a good shape though. The room is a dark hole, there is a fuse box humming loudly the whole night (so you have to turn the whole electricity off, including AC). The water takes about 10 minutes to warm up a bit. The pool is very dirty, small and uninviting, „fitness“ isn‘t even worth description. On top of that at the end they charge you extra for 2 tiny bottles of water, there is no openly visible price tag and the water was free in all our other Cabo Verde places. It‘s not about the money, it‘s about the attitude: trying to cheat and earn most money out of a worn down place. Sorry, no recommendation.
