Very expensive and not as advertised

Must have been a nice hotel in the past. Outdated rooms, mouldy bed linen, at very high prices. One sugar satchel and one coffee cup in a room for a couple. Housekeeping come into your room when you're out, even when you put up the 'do not disturb' sign. A lot of the staff were very friendly and helpful but management need to address these errors.

Great pool and breakfast. The party at the ocean view does go late (3pm) but we slept through it. Location was fun. Paid parking at about $5 a day valet. Vent in bathroom smelled of sewer which was gross. Maybe the trap dried out again and again. Overall great though.

Rio vermilo is close by with bars and clubs close by. Casa Teresa is a restaurant close by to eat Bahian food. Everything is walkable. Go see lighthouse. Rooms can be upgraded with new fixtures and furniture. Overall very good hotel. Gym needs improvement.

I love the hotel was in a great location near to bars, restaurant, with security and walking distance if you wanted to walk. I did not like the cleanliness of the room. Found someone’s hair in the toilet, bath floor was dirty and looked stained. In addition we found our toilet was leaking all over the bathroom door. Bed linens felt cheap and very thin, fitted sheets kept falling off the corners every time I rolled over and found myself freezing because there were only one sheet to sleep with no blanket or comforter. For the price and how nice the hotel looked I expected a little more.

Não voltaria a me hospedar por causa do barulho.

O hotel está sendo reformado. O quarto é pequeno é o banheiro também. O que detestei mesmo foi o barulho do hotel. Qualquer pessoa que passe na porta parece que está dentro do quarto. Elevador abrindo se ouve também dentro do quarto… Além de gente arrastando cadeira no andar de cima ou do lado. Simplesmente qualquer barulho parece amplificado. Eu como arquiteta tenho propriedade pra falar que a acústica é simplesmente péssima para que tem sono ruim que nem o meu. Infelizmente tive uma noite péssima de sono. O café da manhã em compensação estava fantástico.

Quer acordar com barulho de obra 8h no fds? Chegar no quarto de hotel e a lixeira tá cheia de cabelo e nenhum dia a camareira aparecer pra fazer a limpeza? Cheio de malas e não quer concierge? Até porque lá não tem. O Novotel vai combinar com você. Pior hotel que fiquei neste último ano.
