If you have lived in Brazil this place will be great. If you haven't you might want to stay away. This place has the best location right on the beach. Just beware that the street lights don't turn off at night and people are up late and then others are up really early and aren't quiet. The AC worked great once I figured out I had to turn on a little breaker first. We stayed on the top floor that they have seemed to turn the roof to into 3 rooms with make shift walls. We saw 2 cockroaches which for the location I kind of expected but that freaked my wife out. If you are fine with a hostel type room that is private then this place is for you. If you have a certain quality standard that you expect when you stay somewhere, don't stay here. Overall I enjoyed the location and didn't have a problem with the facility.

Right on the boardwalk, nice view of the water!

clean, comfortable accommodations. Fast wifi(although it went out for a day while I was there). Very reasonably priced for my own single bedroom with air conditioning and a shower/bathroom.

Xexelento

Meu deus, que lugar mais xexelento! Atendimento: só faltam te xingar, tudo de cara emburrada, não dão nem bom dia! Limpeza: tudo cheira a cândida muuuuito forte. Parece estar limpo né?! Só que não. Embaixo da cama e atrás dos móveis tinha poeira e cabelo que nam acabavam mais. Além disso, usavam tanta cândida que o chão ficava grudento pois não retiravam o produto direito. Cama péssima, colchão horrível, travesseiros nojentos. Frigobar que eu nem tive coragem de usar, de tão podre. Café da manhã pior do mundo. Tudo era ruim e mal feito, até um simples café passado. Triste!
