Nao recomendo

Pessima experiencia. Nao tem armario nem closet no quarto, apenas uns cabides pra pendurar camisas. ou seja, suas roupas tem que ficar na mala. Quarto minusculo, porta do banheiro quando aberta impede o uso da pia. A agua da pia é fraca, quase nao sai. Cafe da manha fraquissimo, com poucas variedades. Estava com minha PET e a pousada me cobrou 70 reais por isso, sem ter nenhum servico de atencao aos PETs. O valor cobrado pela diaria nao compensa, pois é possivel se hospedar em outros hoteis e pousadas nas praias de joao pessoa com precos mais justos. O unico ponto positivo foi a simpatia das atendentes na recepcao.
