Loved this place! Great breakfast spread in the morning. Very nice pool and right across from the beach. Nice rooms with comfy bed and strong shower. Great staff with English spoken. This place exceeded my expectations by a lot. Loved Salvador in general.
訪訪客Pros:
* spacious clean room
* good breakfast opening at 6:30am sharp (doors are locked before then), with lactose-free milk and gluten-free options
* okay pool area (no greenery though)
Cons:
* the A/C was weak, but after running it for one day the room was sufficiently cool (you do need a card in the slot during that day...)
* no ”Do not disturb” sign to hang onto the doorknob
* the desk in the room was small and very annoying for laptop work (round, glass)
* the chairs in the room were not comfortable at all
* out of all the staff, only one front desk person spoke English
* no laundry facilities
* no business room
* old slow elevator
* window didn't insulate from the street noise that well, but I used 33 dB NRR earplugs to block the noise that came through; there are also many rooms that don't face the street
* the front gate didn't open automatically with my key; had to wait for staff to open it; other times it was left open
Eu e minha família ficamos uma semana nesse hotel. A localização é boa, ponto central para o centro histórico, Farol da Barra, shoppings e outros locais interessantes de Salvador. Quando visitamos, estava em reforma, causando algum barulho suportável. A limpeza é impecável. O café da manhã é mediano, nada extraordinário ou decepcionante. Funcionários da recepção são ótimos, assim como as mulheres que atendem no restaurante. Aliás, esse é um ponto a ser melhorado: o horário de funcionamento do restaurante, pois se o hóspede quiser comer depois de 21:00h não consegue. Acho que a experiência foi positiva.
We come from Germany and this hotel was recommended to me in advance by friends. And it is really great! We also recommend it very much! The quiet location directly on the beautiful beach is paradise! The owner welcomed us very warmly and always took time for a nice chat with us and had helpful travel tips. The service is great, the staff very friendly and the food excellent! The incredibly varied breakfast is prepared with love and offers every day different delicious highlights. The hotel is the perfect place to relax by the pool or sea and really enjoy yourself! We will definitely like to come back!
