Melhor pelas fotos.

Peguei um chalé privativo para passar 2 diárias com minha esposa. Foi uma experiencia lamentável pelo valor pago. O lugar era bonitinho, porém não tinha conforto algum. O colchão era muito fino e duro, as roupas de camas ruins, as toalhas estavam manchadas e de péssima qualidade e o local muito longe das praias. É um local para quem quer fugir das praias e ficar mais em contato com a natureza, sem ligar para confortos.

Quarto privativo caro para o que oferece

Os funcionários e do os são muito simpáticos e prestativos. Vale a pena o quarto compartilhado. O quarto privativo não possui nenhum conforto, meu banheiro não tinha nem toalhas. Tive que pedir. Pelo preço que paguei dava para ficar em pousada com piscina. O colchão era super duro e quando reclamei viraram o mesmo do outro lado e funcionou. A banda de terça feira animou a estadia. O café da manhã não é tudo isso.

Local excelente, mas cuidado com as "pegadinhas"

Gostei muito do local, apesar de ser um pouco longe de tudo, creio que atende ao público que quer uma nova experiência. As fotos não mentem: o lugar é show. Sugiro só uma manutenção melhor das telas das janelas (já que é o único fechamento que existe), pois algumas estavam soltas facilitando a entrada de insetos. Um único porém negativo que me chateou muito. Ao chegar o funcionário Régis gentilmente explicou o funcionamento e todas atividades que o hostel oferecia. No outro dia veio sentar conosco no café da manhã (aliás excelente) e nos convidar para um passeio numa cascata e praia. Nós fomos sem imaginar que tratava-se de um passeio realizado por ele, na sua hora vaga de trabalho e que não era incluso nos serviços do hostel (aliás nem sei se o proprietário sabe desse extra dele). Daí depois veio a cobrança, que não era abusiva, mas impositiva já que fomos sem saber desse extra. Achei isso muito chato, pois dá a sensação de exploração. Fiquei muito chateada de não ter sido claramente exposto como um serviço dele! e pago! Aliás, isso também é praticado no Pelourinho. Alguns guias se apresentam e falam que são guias e quanto custa. Daí tudo bem. Mas as vezes, na hora de entrar, em algum lugar turístico pago o porteiro diz que alguém vem nos receber, daí tu acha que isso faz parte da entrada e do serviço: depois cobram o valor que querem. Depois o Brasil reclama que temos poucos turistas. Ninguém gosta de pagar de trouxa.
