Razoável

Razoável, o hostel não possui recepção 24 horas. Os quartos são apertados. Não oferecem cadeado para os armários sob a justificativa de que o quarto possui chave, todavia, saí várias vezes tendo trancado o quarto e quando chegava achava aberto. Graças a Deus não tive nada furtado. Presenciei a dona ou gerente do hostel discutindo e brigando em voz alta com uma funcionária/voluntária, situação extremamente constrangedora. Foi minha primeira vez neste hostel e não me hospedaria novamente, pois, já fiquei em outros hostels vem melhores.

Bom pra quem viaja só

Lugar muito bem localizado, comércios próximos, até q os hóspedes mantém limpo! Cheguei mais cedo pra deixar a bolsa e ir pra praia, sabia q só teria alguém pra recepcionar após as 9h, mas não apareceu ninguém e fui à praia c a bolsa, voltei às 14h e encontrei a Rita q foi muito atenciosa e me explicou o funcionamento! Fornecem roupa de cama, mas achei muito caro o aluguel de 15 reais da toalha, perguntei se poderia deixar a bolsa, já q meu voo só sairia mais tarde e disse q sim, mediante pagto de 30 reais, ou seja, quase o valor da diária, um absurdo, acho q pode até cobrar, mas não tudo isso por uma bolsa…

DESLIGAM AR CONDICIONADO NO VERÃO

Em pleno verão (fevereiro), pagando 688 reais a diária em quarto para 6 (período de carnaval), o AR CONDICIONADO FOI DESLIGADO TODOS OS DIAS, por volta de 8 horas da manhã. Não aconselho ninguém!

Hospedagem espetacular

Me surpreendeu demais a hospedagem. Localização é perfeita, próximo a praia, padarias, mercados, bares. A limpeza dos quartos, banheiros e áreas comuns excelente. Me senti em casa, fui super bem recebida pela administradora e seus funcionários, que foram muito prestativos e acolhedores. E o ponto alto foi a presença dos gatinhos mais fofos que existem. Com certeza votarei em breve.
