Feels like home

Bahia prime is perfectly located in the safe neighbourhood of Barra, close to the beach, restaurants and not far from the historic centre. Spacious, with aircon rooms, and great indoor/ outdoor spaces, bahia prime is a comfortable hostel to call home when in Salvador. The breakfast is good and the staff are friendly and helpful.

Gostei do atendimento dos funcionários e da localização do hostel. Porém, o café da manhã é bem fraco, o chuveiro do quarto privativo não estava funcionando a água quente (o que fez falta, pois fomos no período chuvoso) e tivemos que descer para usar o banheiro coletivo. O banheiro (e o acesso para ele) estava precisando de limpeza (tinham minhocas no box, por exemplo).

Sin limpieza en absoluto

Llegué el 28/12 y me dijeron que no tenían personal de limpieza. Y fue tal cual, estuve 4 noches y los baños nunca se limpiaron. El desayuno deprimente, lo único bueno es la buena onda de Tulio. Una pena porque el lugar es hermoso pero no lo mantienen.

Bahia prime hostel decepcionante, café da manhã precário oque seria mais honesto o estabelecimento não oferecer, quanto limpeza não tem um verdadeiro chiqueiro fiquei 7 noites não havia funcionários realizando a limpeza do quarto e banheiro onde fiquei, estavao uma verdadeira imundícia. O hostel está sobre administração do Sr Tony onde dou nota 0 em sua administração, pois esse local teria tudo para ser um local maeavilhoso, pois a instalação fica numa casa muito bonita e estruturada, mais a ma administração e atendimento estso acabando com o local.

Para as camas de cima tem a dificuldade de acesso a tomadas. A comunicação com as pessoas torna-se um pouco dificil porque a pessoa principal não fala em português, muitas das informações do hostel não estão em português. Mas no geral, é um lugar lindo, excelente localização, pessoas agradáveis.
