A améliorer
Pros:

Le repas du soir était bon. La chambre était propre.

Cons:

Pas de climatisation et coupure de courant de 2h jusqu'à 7h du matin. Le groupe électrogène ne fonctionnait pas. Pas d'aération dans la chambre. La chambre donne directement sur la salle du restaurant, donc pas d'intimité.

Nice location, weird room arrangement...
Pros:

The location is fine, with beautiful views. The food is good.

Cons:

What they don't tell you is that the basic rooms are in reality right by the restaurant/bar/dining area. The location of the rooms, literally 3 steps away from a bar/restaurant that's open to everybody, is a bit peculiar. Also, the bathroom is in an open space that's separated from the bedroom by a wall that does not go all the way to the ceiling. It does not have a door.

Freundliche Unterkunft mit schöner Terrasse mit sehr gutem Preis-Leistungsverhältnis
Pros:

Die Unterkunft liegt etwas außerhalb der Stadt Santana. Die Hauptstadt Sao Tome ist etwa 12 Kilometer, der Flughafen 20 Kilometer entfernt. Es gibt eine Terrasse mit idyllischem Blick über den Dschungel auf die Berge bzw. auch in Richtung Meer. WLAN funktioniert gut, Stromgenerator vorhanden (wird zu bestimmten Zeiten eingeschaltet). Privatparkplätze im Innenhof vorhanden. Es gibt Getränke und ein Restaurant - sehr zu empfehlen, am besten das Abendessen vorbuchen! Frühstück ist sehr gut und wird ebenfalls auf der Terrasse serviert. Die Zimmer sind ausreichend geräumig, Klimaanlage funktioniert gut. Das Personal ist sehr nett und hilfsbereit. Das Preis-/Leistungsverhältnis ist hier hervorragend!

Cons:

In unserem Zimmer war kein Spiegel, es wurde aber in kürzester Zeit ein Spiegel organisiert. Bei den häufiger vorkommenden Stromausfällen auf der Insel gibt es bis zum Einschalten des Generators dann auch kein Internet. Die Zimmer liegen teilweise direkt beim Restaurant und sind hellhörig; meistens ist der Restaurantbetrieb (teilweise auch mit Musik) gegen 22:00 Uhr beendet.

A caminho do Sul
Pros:

O pequeno almoço é simples, mas suficiente.

Cons:

O barulho do gerador, quando falta a eletricidade é ensurdecedor.
