Séjour court mais excellent dans cet hôtel idéalement situé à l’entrée du Pelourinho
Pros:

L’hôtel est idéalement situé, à 2 pas du centre historique et des restaurants/bars.
Par ailleurs l’accueil est excellent ! Le personnel est très disponible et très arrangeant, ce qui rend le séjour très agréable.
La chambre est bien organisée et fonctionnelle, avec un lit queen size confortable et le petit déjeuner satisfera tous les goûts, c’est une adresse que je recommande volontiers !
Merci à l’équipe pour son accueil !

Cons:

Je ne vois aucun reproche à adresser

Hotel molto suggestivo ma da curare di più
Pros:

L'hotel è stato ricavato da un precedente internet café, ristrutturato con molto gusto. E' in una posizione molto suggestiva, che permette di godere appieno dell'atmosfera cittadina, ricca di musica e colori.

Cons:

La ristrutturazione è stata fatta in modo conservativo (e fin qui si apprezza) ma con poca cura per la qualità. Basterebbe poco, ad esempio, per rendere il bagno più confortevole. La nostra stanza (superior) era spaziosa ma non c'era nessun tavolino, una mancanza per me rilevante, visto poi che gli spazi comuni sono ridotti e non hanno aria condizionata.

like a movie
Pros:

great hospitality, especially grom Gabriele. exciting interior as it preserves the antique value and elaborates on it with tasteful touches. felt like a movie. very convenient location for pelourinho or campo grande.

Cons:

backstreets can get a little sketchy at night, with people yelling quite often. also in the night a group of russians checked in in the room nearby which was a pathetic addition to such a great time there. nothing hotel can control though.

Localização maravilhosa no Pelourinho!
Pros:

Localização excelente e muito segura. Café da manhã bom e com uma vista linda para a Baía de Todos os Santos. Quarto triplo espaçoso, silencioso, com camas confortáveis e roupa de cama impecável.

Cons:

O ar condicionado estava vazando e molhando um pouco o quarto. As cômodas têm apenas prateleiras e gavetas. Não há cabideiros para pendurar as roupas.

Un hotel très confortable, idéalement situé avec un personnel exceptionnel
Pros:

Très central, chambres très confortable, la salle du petit dej est superbe avec vue sur la place et la mer au loin.
Le personnel est vraiment aux petits soins. Nous avons rayonné plusieurs fois à partir de cet hôtel en laissant une partie des bagages pour plusieurs jours, au retour d’un trajet en bus de nuit, nous avons pu nous doucher et refaire nos sacs tranquillement. A chaque retour après plusieurs journées à l’extérieur, on avait vraiment l’impression de rentrer à la maison.
Plein de bons conseils pour une location de voiture, un taxi qui parle français, des points d’intérêt dans la ville et aux alentours.
Bref un hôtel à recommander sans hésiter

Cons:

Rien, tout eteit parfait
