Consider that this is a very old house as all of the houses around Olinda city center. The room I got was quite poor. Lack of ventilation, bugs everywhere, while my friends got another rooms in the same property those were way better in general terms. Just make sure you dont get the room that is connected with Beijupirá restaurant.

Staff is the best this place has to offer! Everyone was super friendly and helpful. The place itself wasn’t my favorite. Very dark with old furniture and small bedroom. The view of Recife from the dining area and our bedroom was breathtaking. After couple of days one can get used to staying there but I won’t be returning.

go to the pousada cuatro caminos instead

This pousada was dirty and mosquito infested. The manager is kind and helpful but the other front of house staff are peculiar - we had a very strange welcome.

Formidável

Simplesmente incrível!! Super recomendo, desde a estrutura, atendimento, localização, limpeza, comida. Tudo. Pra não falar que não tivemos nenhum problema o pedido da nossa comida foi errado no sistema e demorou um pouco. Mas quando o atendente identificou o erro imediatamente atuou pra resolver. A pousada tem mais de 300 anos e carrega uma imensidão de história mantida até hoje para ser conhecida e admirada. Além disso a atendente Laiane foi maravilhosa, nós indicou os melhores caminhos com segurança. Conhecemos os principais pontos turísticos a pé e na frente tem uma sorveteria maravilhosa. Enfim, recomendo!

Aparentemente charmosa, mas nem tanto

A Pousada do Amparo está em uma localização incrível em Olinda e se trata de um edifício antigo e com área comum interessante. A piscina é charmosa, e o café da manhã agrada muito. O apartamento standart, porém, leva-o a enfrentar várias escadas íngremes e é absolutamente austero, para dizer o mínimo. A roupa de cama e de banho é desgastada e muito pouco confortável, o banheiro é minúsculo e muito precário. Se o preço cobrado não for uma barganha, há opções melhores em Olinda.
