The place is across the street from the beach. Walkable area. The unit was okay it could be a little better. Very close to Praia dos anjos where all the tour boats leaves. The unit needs new towels they were about to decompose and more face towels as were just one for 4 people. The curtain also could use a new one it looked moldy. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Having a garage to park the car was awesome.
Localidade espetacular, funcionários muito bons. Problemas foi mais estrutural, no quarto que ficamos tinhamos algumas tomadas com defeito, algumas lampadas tambem não funcionava. Al ém do box do banheiro que apresentava problemas para abrir e fechar a porta.

Tudo estava ótima.
Cozinha bem equipada, tudo em perfeito funcionamento.
só a vista da varanda do quarto que ficamos que não foi muito boa. não era possível ver a praia. Mas fora isso tudo estava ótimo.
los cuartos estan muy viejos. Lo arraial es un lugar de pasada .porque la ciudad en si es muy vieja. El area es centrica enfrente de la playa pero los rooms son muy viejos.Es un condominio tranquilo. La piscina es muy chica y la ves que estuvimos estaba sucia.

Local muito bom, opções de refeição próximas e dá para fazer a pé.
A estrutura é bom, limpa e o atendimento muito bom. O ponto baixo fica por conta do colchão, travesseiros e roupa de cama, deixa bem a desejar.
O prédio é os arredores sao bem barulhentos, se gosta de silêncio, indico procurar um locou mais afastado.

O que pecou foi o cheiro de mofo no quarto; o cheiro do ralo do banheiro está MT forte cheirando a esgoto ( coloquei o tapete do box em cima do ralo e melhorou), botão de acionamento da ducha higiênica quebrada e a descarga com vazamento. Fora estas questões o quarto está na média de um apart. O que me ganhou foi a localização que é excelente.

Fomos muito bem recebidos. As camas do quarto que eu fiquei os colchões eram bem ruins 1 travesseiro muito fino para cada hóspede e quando pedi o adicional foi cobrado. O restaurante na piscina os donos são maravilhosos e o rapaz do drink um amor.

A localização sem dúvidas é o ponto maior. No nosso quarto em si, achei ele com pouca luminosidade e a fechadura do banheiro estava ruim. Mas no geral o hotel, muito bom.
