Simplicity with great location

Very good service, excellent location, but access to the rooms only via stairs. We stayed in a double room with a private bathroom, but the room and bathroom were very small. Very simple breakfast, but enough to start the day. There is no parking, but the car can be parked on the street and very close by.

Quarto muito limpo e confortável, o nome diz que é Hostel mas é muito diferente que conhecemos. Silencioso, confortável e limpo. Faltou apenas o frigobar. O café da manhã é simples, não tem frios e nem ovos mexidos. Alguns pãozinhos na cestinha, pão de forma , manteiga e geléia. Suco de laranja e café. A recepção são pessoas super atenciosas e prestativos. Com certeza hospedaria tranquilamente nesse HOSTEL.

A estadia dos quartos de casal foi excelente. A equipe do hostel é maravilhosa e muito receptiva e fazem de tudo para deixar você se sentir em casa. Minha família adorou ter ficado lá. Único detalhe que é muito besteira que mudaria: colocaria um lixeiro maior no banheiro. Muito obrigado a todos pela excelente estadia no local!

Bom

Pousada boa! Localização boa. Não gostei que o quarto era no segundo andar e minha mãe ficava ofegante para chegar pelas escadas. Café da manhã simples. Bem limpo, cama confortável.
