    Razoável.

    Não tem estacionamento (carro fica na rua, mas rua calma sem movimento e com vagas disponiveis). Grama do pátio sem estar cortada. Piscina Boa. Quarto sujo (embaixo da cama encontrei um pote de mel e uma garrafa de refrigerante virada - provável que seja de hóspedes anteriores). Toalhas bem velhas com tecido gasto e até rasgos. Privada semi entupida. Papel higiênico de péssima qualidade (lixa...tive que comprar um pacote no supermercado, pois não é possível usar o papel fornecido). Café da manhã razoável. No check in pedem para assinar um termo com valores de ressarcimento em caso de danos, porém os valores são irreais e muito mais altos que qualquer item...exemplo... R$ 2.500 pela TV, que pelo modelo da TV que tinha no quarto, vale R$ 500 apenas. Localização é Boa (não excelente, mas boa). Custo x benefício não é bom.

    primeira vez na pousada e gostamos bastante. voltaremos certamente. apenas faria uns ajustes quanto a periodicidade de troca de roupas de cama/banho, já que é um local de praia. e a cama poderia ser mais confortável, estava claramente com desnível no colchão.
