Room was full of moles, bed sheets had stains all over. Only towel in the room. From desk refused to give a second until 48h as past. Hotel is unresponsive and unreachable by me and Expedia. Expedia did a great job support. I definitely don’t recommend this “hotel”

Avoid

Avoid at all costs if you are not local or speak Portuguese.checked into the room and one of the double rooms.was locked. When my friend who is local went to reception the check in staff made comments about me not been from Brazil and not able to speak Portuguese. He then went on to make sexist remarks towards her. It was late in the evening so in the morning we checked out and mkved to another more welcoming hotel in the area.

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, communication
Terrible experience from the start: for a full week before arriving, I messaged their WhatsApp, Instagram, website, and even called to change my dates — no response, no help, and Expedia also failed to accommodate me, leaving me with no choice but to go. When I arrived, reception didn’t even greet me, the first room flooded immediately from sewage backing up in the shower, and the second room they gave me wasn’t clean, with mold on the curtains, shower walls, and throughout the space. Nothing was as advertised, I felt uncomfortable the entire time, and this was one of the worst travel experiences I’ve ever had.

Fiquei por 4 dias, e não tenho do que reclamar. Ar condicionado gela bem. Utensílios de cozinha que são funcionais pra preparar seu café pela manhã. Vista do 1 andar para a Praia Grande é sensacional, me hospedarei novamente mês que vem! Único ponto que poderiam rever, era de colocar algum porta shampoo nos banheiros pois não tem onde colocar nada

Hotel de bom só tem a localização, a vista e o espaço do quarto. Falta utensílio de cozinha, panelas velhas, banheiro não tem suporte pra sabonete no box. Cortinas imundas, não justifica ser frente mar, é desleixo mesmo. O barulho é MUITO GRANDE. Tem um bar de forró na frente e um de pagode do lado direito, com a janela fechada não dá pra ouvir a televisão (inclusive não é smart, não tem nem YouTube). Barulhos dos bares é infernal, não tem como descansar, é barulho da rua, das motos, dos bares, pessoal do apartamento de cima arrastando cadeira. Recepção pouco simpática. Não tenho escorredor de louça, não tem pano de prato, esponja de louça parecia que tava lá há um tempão, bem suja e nojenta assim como as panelas.
