Pousada com grande potencial

O dono da pousada é muito disponível e atencioso, faz de tudo pra agradar os hóspedes. O café da manhã é bem fraco. A roupa de cama, apesar de lençóis e fronhas estarem limpos, tinha um cheiro muito forte e os travesseiros precisam ser trocados com urgência. Ninguém além da minha família usava máscara.
