Over priced

Ants crawling all over the place. Location isn't amazing. Way over priced for what it is. Breakfast is basic. No hot water in shower. No sheet on the bed, only a blanket. But on a positive note. Staff were very friendly and helpful.

Ficamos em um bom quarto, porém o banheiro estava fedendo xixi. A equipe bacana. O que mais incomodou foi os próprios hóspedes com bateção de porta e a noite gritando atrapalhando nosso descanso.

A pousada tem uma estrutura muito boa, com condições de excelência porém, peca em detalhes, no quarto em que fiquei, o frigobar estava ruim, com a base apodrecida de ferrugem e não fechava, tive que colocar peso em meu cooler para escorar a porta para manter fechada; a água do chuveiro e pia com forte cheiro de mofo, as toalhas cedidas já estavam velhas soltando felpos, a cama de possuía um dos pés apoiados por pedaço de madeira. De positivo, o quarto era amplo, com boa ventilação, o café da manhã era caprichado, a pousada é organizada, com área de lazer. No geral foi bom!

Razoável

Apesar do excelente e atencioso atendimento das pessoas, a hospedagem no geral foi razoável, principalmente a falta de conforto da cama e dos travesseiros velhos e morfados.
