Paris Hotel

In a town with limited options this turned out to be an excellent choice: Room: we opted for a Deluxe Room and it was very nice: spacious, clean, and brand spanking new. The bed was large and extremely comfortable. The shower was perfect, Wi-Fi worked well and there were sufficient electrical outlets. A mini fridge was an additional bonus, as were the wall to wall windows, which provided a nice breeze and a good view of the street below. Staff: friendly, cheerful and helpful. As an English speaker language was sometimes a barrier, but not an insurmountable one. Food: we had one breakfast here and it was, quite simply, terrible. Coffee was insipid and watery, with none of the bite of good café sua da. An otherwise respectable egg found its reputation tarnished by association with a sausage of disturbingly spongey texture. The best I can say is, in a land blessed with delectable fruit, it must have required considerable ingenuity to locate an apple and grapefruit so devoid of flavor. Don't let this dissuade you, though, as breakfast isn't included and good coffee and breakfast foods are easily available nearby. Location: perfect. Wherever you choose to stay, make sure it's near the waterfront park with its vibrant promenade and bustling street food scene. Overall, perhaps not a memorable stay but very good one, and truly outstanding value for the money.
