Som altíssimo por perto 24 horas por dia
Péssima experiência. Esperava sossego perto da praia, mas tivemos que suportar o som numa casa vizinha por 24horas/dias sem nenhum suporte do proprietário da pousada, que nos tratou mal inclusive, que não apareceu para dar satisfação e sugeriu que procurássemos outro local, que foi o que tivemos que fazer, às 8h da manha, ao som de um funk sem pudor no último volume. De modo geral, mesmo que houvesse silêncio na pousada, não voltaríamos jamais principalmente pela falta de trato do proprietário.

Falta profissionalismo
Não tem uma área de espera confortável, fui chamada atenção pra sair do quarto antes do meio dia, acho que todos temos direito de pelo menos 15 minutos de tolerância, estava só esperando o carro até porque não tem nenhuma área propícia para espera, recebi uma visita e fui cobrada 50 reais por 1 hora da visita, e achei muito deselegante da parte do funcionário bater na porta para avisar isso e não esperar a saída do mesmo!
