    The location was very convenient, since it is at the entrance of Olinda and nearby all atractions, including restaurants. It is easy to reach by public transportation. The staff was always friendly and ready to help the tourist. The facilities are good, pool is good and the breakfast is also good.

    The only problem we encaountered was the shower was brokend and the couldn´t fix it during the stay.

    During my Christmas vacation, I stayed at a hotel near the historical center. The location was perfect, with easy walking access to local restaurants and attractions. the secure surroundings provided me with a comfortable feeling. The breakfast had a reasonable selection, and the staff were always friendly and helpful.

    The room was small and had some maintenance issues. I also encountered language barriers with the staff, and it was sometimes difficult to communicate certain requests.

    The building and facilities in general are very good, with beautiful garden, and an inviting atmosphere. The Wifi coverage is quite good and there are lots of public areas to sit down and relax.

    The staff needs to be trained to be more service oriented. The breakfast could definitely improve. Furniture is very simple, not even a chair.

    Room had good size. Good swimming pool and common areas

    The bathroom was very old and way too small. And the worst was the romm was infested with mosquitos because the bathroom window did not have a proper anti-mosquito net. Expensive for its price, as most hotels in Brazil!!

    Spent a lovely Christmas in a charming little establishment in a great location. the continental breakfast was abundant with freshly baked goods and fruits, and the rooms were spacious and quiet. It was located in the heart of the historic district, making it easy to explore the area. the staff was friendly and welcoming.

    The hotel needs some updating, and the Wi-Fi signal was weak and unreliable. Noise could also be an issue, as some guests were noisy during the night.

    Most of all is the location. The hotel is at the entrance of Old Olinda and very near of all places in Old Olinda, You can walk to all touristic places. Besides this, is the best value for my money. Breakfast is very good and the rooms are very comfortable and very clean.

    Dichtbij de historische wijk in Olinda

    Personeel spreekt nauwelijks engels, heel veel trappen naar jouw kamer, het eten verdient enorme verbetering.

    I had a great stay in this hotel! The location was perfect, as it was close to the historical center but not in the busy center itself. I found it easy to explore the beautiful city by foot. Additionally, the area around the hotel felt safe. The staff were very friendly and helpful, making my stay comfortable. Lastly, the cleanliness of the hotel impressed me.

    Not one thing to complain about.

    The hotel has a nice pool and the air conditioning worked well. Fairly nice place to stay in Olinda and affordable.

    Ants were always present, but not entirely unexpected. The a/c unit would also drip condensate onto the head of the bed.

    If you're looking for a peaceful place close to the liveliness of the historic district, this is the perfect spot. Just a short walk away from the local restaurants and bars, this hotel offers comfortable rooms and a relaxing pool area. the breakfast is a good start to the day, and there's even a great bartender who knows how to mix up a delicious drink. Plus, there are some beautiful beaches nearby to enjoy.

    The internet connection could be improved.
