Pros:

Didn’t find it as rated, was a letdown. Room clean and soundproof, pool is for photo only, more like a large tub, plus was more green than blue.
Food was good but expensive
Good free breakfast

Pros:

The hotel is conveniently located. The staff was helpful for arranging taxis, storing baggage. The breakfast was Cabo Verde average. The hotel and the room were not in a good shape though. The room is a dark hole, there is a fuse box humming loudly the whole night (so you have to turn the whole electricity off, including AC). The water takes about 10 minutes to warm up a bit. The pool is very dirty, small and uninviting, „fitness“ isn‘t even worth description. On top of that at the end they charge you extra for 2 tiny bottles of water, there is no openly visible price tag and the water was free in all our other Cabo Verde places. It‘s not about the money, it‘s about the attitude: trying to cheat and earn most money out of a worn down place. Sorry, no recommendation.

excellent breakfast and good value
Pros:

I stayed at this hotel for 1 night en-route to Volcano Fogo in a nearby island. The hotel is a good 30-40 minutes walk from the plateau which is where all the activities in Praia take place but there are restaurants and also a small supermarket nearby. The room had good air conditioning and was clean. The buffet breakfast was excellent with a variety of options. Reception was helpful, they lent me a map of the city for my stay and helped me arrange a taxi to the airport.

Ok stay
Pros:

Spent three nights here. A little distance from Plato but short walking distance to the local beach with restaurants. Rented a car for a day and the fental company is just around the corner - very convenient.
Internet was extremely slow in the room

Pros:

The customer service was outstanding there is nothing I ask for that was not taken care of. Joslynn was the perfect host as well as others like Elton I would stay here again.
The property’s needs some tender loving care to spruce up the place and this hotel would be a number 1

Hôtel en fin de vie
Pros:

Hôtel médiocre.
La piscine et le bar promis sur le toi ne fonctionne pas.
L'air conditionné dans la chambre crache de l'eau.
Le mini bar avec bière et jus d'orange promis n'est pas approvisionné malgré les remarques
Le frigos dabs la chambre fait un bruit de bouilloire électrique.
La télé ne fonctionne pas.
Les poubelles des gens avant son toujour la.
Le petit déjeuner pain sec. Pas de confiture n'y choco.
Personnel peu agréable.
Le pire hôtel de tous mes voyages
