extensive breakfast easy parking air conditioner thin sheet
the extensive breakfast had a great variety. parking was included , and it was easy to access from the rooms.
the air conditioner did not work during the day , when it was most needed. it only worked at night , which was not ideal. there were no face towels in the room , which i found inconvenient. the beds only had a thin sheet , so it was quite cold at night.

limited breakfast uncomfortable pillows
The breakfast selection felt really limited. it wasn't what i expected for a hotel charging those prices. some things in the bathroom needed repairs, too. the pillows were not comfortable. This was frustrating! for a pousada managed by pestana, there were definitely several details lacking.
