Pros:

Excellent stay with minor service issues

​Review:

My recent stay at Vila Gale Salvador was overall a wonderful experience. The accommodation was great—very comfortable and well-maintained. We also thoroughly enjoyed the breakfast, which was fantastic and offered a great variety.

​The majority of the staff were incredibly helpful and welcoming throughout our stay. However, I did have a disappointing experience with one staff member. During our visit, one lady in particular seemed quite unwelcoming and did not smile or acknowledge us as guests. When I asked her for coffee—which I couldn't locate on the counter—she was quite rude in her response.

​Aside from this interaction, we had a very pleasant time, and I believe that with a little more consistent service, this hotel would be perfect.

Cons:

This is not my first time in The Vila Gale Salvador ... the breakfast is amazing

Recepção, atendimento foram ótimos, pelo funcionário Cássio. O café da manhã é bem diversificado, com lanches quentes,
Pros:

O tamanho das camas, roupas de cama e banho, volume de água do chuveiro.

Cons:

O odor de mofo nos corredores de acesso aos apartamentos . Ao acessar o apartamento,tem que abrir as janelas para arejar e mesmo assim o odor de mofo permanece.

Decepção
Pros:

Boa localização

Cons:

Quarto escuro e com cheiro de mofo. Infiltração atrás das cortinas. Comunicamos a recepção e pedimos a troca do quarto mas não tivemos resposta. O quarto ficou um dia sem limpeza. Já ficamos nesse hotel há uns 6 anos mas percebemos que caiu muito a qualidade. Café da manhã normal.

The hotel is OK, but not a wonderful stay. It is not a bad hotel, but I would not return or recommend it to my Costa Ric
Pros:

The hotel has a good location and some nice areas. The doorman (I believe his name was Edison) was very friendly and welcoming, and he was the person who made the biggest effort to make foreign guests feel comfortable.

Cons:

The rooms feel quite old and have an old smell that could be improved. During my stay, only one elevator was working, which was inconvenient. The elevator to access the pool was also not working.
The breakfast was the biggest disappointment. The system for ordering eggs was not well organized, and the service was not friendly, especially toward international guests. After traveling through Brazil from the Northeast down, I had received very warm and welcoming service everywhere else, so this experience was surprising.
