Great hotel. But the driver I hired was a nightmare. NELSON CABRAL.
Pros:

Clean, staff, cafe, location.
Zelda, Joseph Essen.

Cons:

The hotel is excellent. Except this is not related to the hotel. They have a driver Nelson Cabral that they call in case guest need pick up from the airport or go to the Equator. Nelson pick me up. So when I needed to go the Equator. I called him.
We eventually settled on 130 euro. I wanted to leave early. He argued with me, so we decided 7:30 am. The next day. Immediately before we left he want to be paid right away. Did not left São Tomé yet.
You have to tell him what you want, he said he is a tour guide but he doesn’t anticipate your need. You have to tell him, you need a toilet break. Arriving the equator. He told me only one hour only. He was the one who negotiated the price of the boat. Like he own the boat. After arriving from the equator around 12:40 pm I was hungry. He did not even asked me if I needed lunch. He wanted to leave immediately. Then he saw a female lady. He decided to give her a ride. No permission. Remember I hired him to be my driver. I am not expecting family member to ride with me. I again told him I needed to go to the toilet. It’s two hour ride each way. He forgot to stop at the toilet stop because he was busy talking to her. I went to the toilet when I was finished he was gone, he decided to drop the girl. I am was so furious.
If you want to hire him. BEWARE do not be fooled.

Pros:

La ubicacion es excelente. En realidad se demoró mi vuelo y no pude hacer el check in en el hotel porque era pasado el horario, pero el personal del hotel se encargó de conseguirme otro lugar donde alojarme, sin costo adicional.

Central, limpo, e funcionários atenciosos. Cumpriu muito bem o que eu esperava.
Pros:

Localização excelente, mesmo central, como diz o nome. Empregados do hotel super simpáticos e disponíveis. Quarto limpo e honesto, nada a apontar. Pequeno-almoço com fruta, sumo de fruta, pão, geleias e omelete. Um dia teve bolo de iogurte. Gostei bastante.

Cons:

Algumas meninas do snack bar adjunto podiam ser mais simpáticas e o tempo de espera é, por vezes, um pouco longo demais, apesar de ter consciência plena de que eu venho de uma realidade muito mais acelerada, e não tão "leve-leve". Ainda assim, são pontos fáceis de melhorar.
