Pestana Trópico - Ocean & City Hotel
Good hotel with decent facilities. Nice rooms, pool is a salt one, makes swimming a bit tough. Staff at front desk were excellent and the rest were good without being particularly friendly. Food was ok, breakfast fine without being exceptional. Marked it a 4 because for the cost and bar prices etc ...
