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.

Excelente mas com alguns pontos a melhorar.
Nós gostamos muito da nossa estadia, não foi a primeira vez que fomos a pousada, porém, alguns pontos deixaram a desejar. Por exemplo: o quarto estava com um cheiro desagradável que não parecia ter a ver com a limpeza e sim com algum móvel que estava no meu quarto. A princípio achamos q era o colchão mas o cheiro não saiu por completo. Sentimos falta de uma tv smart, pois na nossa primeira passagem, tinha, inclusive com acesso da Netflix com a própria conta da pousada. Também sentimos falta de uma lixeira maior, pois compramos coisas na rua e não tinha onde jogar fora, pois só tinha uma lixeira pequena no banheiro. A limpeza diária nos quartos foi boa, sem reclamações. Aos recepcionistas todos muito gentis e receptivos, sempre dispostos a ajudar. É um enorme elogio ao café da manhã, pois todos os dias estava maravilhoso, além da gentileza e educação das profissionais da cozinha!!!

Pousada de boas acomodações. Os quartos são aconchegantes e limpos. Café da manhã saudável e os funcionários da pousada são simpáticos e prestativos. Nada a reclamar. Recomendo a todos. Quando voltar em Arraial ficarei lá de novo.

Não foi nada boa ! A única coisa boa foi o atendimento da Jennifer e do rapaz que serve o café da manha.... O quarto é extremamente pequeno e não possui mesa de cabeceira o que dificulta muito....e as fronhas estavam usadas. Reclamei para trocar mas trocaram apenas uma....travesseiros péssimo....

Não foi ruim mas não voltarei
Fica bem no início da cidade e tem uma ladeira bem íngreme na chegada. Fazer qualquer coisa andando não é algo simples, considerando a subida. Fica perto mas ao mesmo tempo não fica. São 20 minutos andando até a praia dos anjos, onde ficam os piers de onde partem barcos de passeio e mergulho. O café da manhã é mujito bom mas não é self service. Você preenche uma comanda com o que quer e a equipe traz. Inicia(teoricamente) às 7h30 e pra quem precisa esta no cais às 8h30 pra mergulho ou passei de barco, aperta um pouco; No primeiro dia pretendia sair às 8h e não consegui, mesmo sendo uma terça-feira. No site informa que o café vai até 10h mas na pousada informam 9h30. Não existe interfone no quarto e o whats muitas vezes fica sem resposta. No quarto existem apenas DUAS tomadas. Nenhuma no banheiro, Cabides e um espelho no quarto fizeram falta. Fiquei 3 noites e não tive o quarto arrumado nenhuma vez.
