Really needs improvement.

Bathroom trash can was really old, rusted and damaged. Completely unacceptable for a hotel with this level as f classification. Still on bathroom, the ceramic tiles grout needs urgent attention. At the restaurant, no sign plates with juice flavors and desserts. What if I’m allergic to shrimp, how can I identify the appetizers with shrimp, if there’s no plates? Overall very poor experience. They need to renew and remodel the management techniques.

Clean hotel with a great location

The hotel's location was great. However check-in took almost 30 minutes as they only had one person and guests with issues. Yet the rest of the services were great, from valet parking to check-out. The room was clean and cool, however the bed was too firm and I woke each morning with aches in pains on my body. Breakfast services were average...I've had better in João Pessoa and the northeast of Brazil. Overall is was great for the location and prompt service.

Good for pleasure ok for business

Great hotel with a open to public gym right next door. Nice pool, near some good restaurant and walking distance to the mall. Safe neighborhood and great breakfar. The only thing not a100% was the internet that was slow at times but overall one of the best hotels in Joao Pessoa.

Management in denial of problems

Hotel looks nice and is in a good location. However it is clearly suffering from lack of maintenance. The games room has broekn games and the gym is mouldy. My shower was leaking and poorly looked after WiFi signal is too weak to work within rooms and you have to go to reception. Breakfast is okay, a nice touch is a chef who makes your omellete for you. On the down side the juice is watered down and one day guests were served sour milk.

Hotel simples mas atende.

Hotel normal, nada demais. O bom que é bem de frente para a praia. Café na manhã bom, camas bem grandes. O maior problema foi o mal cheiro do banheiro pois, a janela dos banheiros fica para a onde fica os canos então fica com muito mal cheiro. Reclamei mas não adiantou.
