I had a great stay for one night at the Eco Hostal Offenbacher Hof - the building had lots of character! My room was airy and light, and it was very quiet. It was a safe location and Francisco was very friendly and chatty.

Excelente custo benefício.
Pros:

Estadia bem localizada. Fomos muito bem recebidos e atendidos pelo Sr. Francisco, dono da propriedade. Não encontrei nenhum ponto negativo, somente positivos. Café da manhã bom. Atendimento de primeira. Local muito bem organizado e bem próximo há uma pizzaria, próxima ao relógio de flores e próximo ao mirante para a praia que fica acima do relógio de flores. Próximo da Rodoviária também.
