Mediocre
Did not like
I could not leave my bag in the reception before for just 2 hours before the check in, staff was not friendly, they charged me extra 40% of the reservation just because there was a little blood stain on the bad sheet due to a cut I had in my leg

Good value for money
Staff is great and we had parking available which saved us, considering the neighbourhood where it's not easy to park. The atmosphere in general is very positive and the room is pretty good value for money.
The beds had dirty sheets, and we asked for the extra sheets later to cover those.

Amazing staff, Matt, Henrique, Maycon and Natasha
The best staff I've seen, and I travelled quite a bit. Good wifi, close to the beach, great breakfast. Also good parking spot, which is hard to find in the area
The check-in is a bit burocratic and takes a while
8.0 / 10.0
Nice place in a good location, with kind staff and lots of things to do nearby.
Despite being located on a badly paved road, the location was great, and the neighbourhood is safe, fun, and people are very kind and nice. Staff were very friendly and kind, the room incredibly spacious.
I was a bit disappointed that there was no breakfast at the day of my departure and I had not been informed about this. It struck me as strange. Also, I had the luxury of a big balcony but with no furniture. It would have been nice with just a chair and a table out there.

Good amenities and location, but staff a bit rude and uninterested
Amenities in the room, balcony, wardrobe, shampoo and soap provided. Location, close to bars, restaurants etc and 10min walk from beach. The road looks a bit dodgy, but turns out it's very safe!
Staff asked us to pay for shampoo dispenser in the shower which we hadn't broken. They insisted and then we rested it in place like it had been done before we moved into the room and they said we don't have to pay anymore. Not a great approach towards staff. Loud music in the surrounding area until 4-5am every night, prepare to stay up! Mattress has plastic wrapping (anti-pee?) which makes you sweat a lot and makes noises when moving around in the bed.

Good
Breakfast is really huge. Lots of foods and beverages. On Saturday they put on the shelf two cakes. They were simply yummy. The location is very good. The place is close to the main street where you'll find almost every thing you want.
In all the time I spent there the room wasn't well cleaned up. I spend a week at the hostel and in only one day the maid showed up to clean the room. The hostel hadn't queen-sized sheets to wear the mattress. After I've asked again for new one, the staff brought me another single-sized sheet and I myself put 2 of them on the bed. Ok, I should reckon hostel wasn't with its full working force on account of covid 19 pandemic, but they could be better.

Very poor
Just the bed
Maily the bad location but in general I didn’t liked at all... don’t recommend
