Situé un peu à l'écart de la ville, l’endroit est très calme. Le quartier semble au premier abord être un peu la zone mais ne présente aucun risque au niveau de la sécurité. Ailtton et Luizenda parlent très bien le français et font tout pour rendre service, pour aider en cas de besoin. C’est vraiment plaisir. Si cela était à refaire, nous retournerions sans hésiter.

Very nice hotel

São Tomé är fantastiskt och hotellet är en oas i stadsmyllret. Man blir lite förvånad först att det ser lite fattigt ut runt om hotellet, men vi upptäckte sen att större delen av São Tomé ser ut så. Hotellet är som ett paradis med pool och 24h poolbar. Rummen är inte lyxiga men de har luftkonditionering och kylskåp och WiFi. Man blir genast personlig med personalen, mycket trevliga.

Relax e Simpatia

Foi uma experiência agradável. O espaço físico é acolhedor. A equipa que alí trabalha é excelente. Se quer conversar um pouco, pode fazê-lo. É enriquecedor conhecer pessoas!... O pequeno almoço é diversificado e prima pela qualidade das frutas.... Pode, tranquilamente, fazer caminhadas até ao centro da cidade. Por perto há padaria e um simpático restaurante, que oferece bom peixe. Poderá pedir uma dose para dois....
