É uma pousada simples. Quarto limpo e roupa de cama e banho limpas. Mas, as instalações são antigas e a manutenção é deficiente. O café da tarde é o ponto forte. O café da manhã é simples sem muitas opções.

Café delicioso. Localização 5 min do centro. Funcionários nota mil! Coisas a melhorar: Quartos precisam de reforma (fiquei em 2 diferentes e os dois com bastante rachaduras e mofo). E o quarto que tem banheira de hidro é só pra criança!!! Ou um adulto de no máximo 1.50 de altura.

O local é bonito, com bastante verde. A localização é maravilhosa e o café da manhã tem bastante opções. Quarto espaço, boa cama, otimo ar condicionado, os únicos pontos ruins: box bem apertado e quarto com cheiro de unidade. Vale muito pelo custo-benefício.

A localização é ótima... Não precisa de carro pra ir ao centro... Fica a 1 minuto de caminhada O único problema é os detalhes Quarto. Banheiro com falta de manutenção. ( Torneira da pia, do chuveiro e a hidro estava com várias manchas principalmente nas peças de metais dentro da banheira. Oxidação e descascados. Sala de jogos Suja, empoeirado, e com móveis quebrado. A piscina estava média,pois havia vários utensílios de manutenção deixados na área dapiscina. Funcionários Não dá pra saber quem trabalha na na pousada por falta de uniforme. Nada contra quem fuma, mas deveria fazer isso fora das dependência da pousada. Cozinha Moças uniformiza, com touca e avental. Disposição do café da manhã estava ótima e as moças da cozinha muito atenciosa e simpática. Sempre respondo tudo Os alimentos preparados na cozinha ( bolos e torta) ótimos. Limpeza do restaurante muito boa Para melhorar o restaurante podia usarem aquelas hélice de mesa pra ajudar a manter as moscas longe.
Tem um pouco de barro na grama, mas é por causa de chuva intensa
Boa, mas tem potencial para ser ótima
Como mencionado, seria bom usar as hélice para ajudar a manter as moscas afastadas. As moças da cozinha são ótimas.

Atendimento muito bom, áreas comuns bem conservadas e o café da manhã muito gostoso, também oferecem um chá da tarde que é bem agradável. Apesar do quarto que ficamos ter um pouco de cheiro de mofo, haviam algumas pequenas infiltrações, não atrapalhou muito a experiência, mas podem cuidar disso.
