The location and the friendly staff

location was great. clean room and nice breakfast. employees very helpful and friendly

no WiFi. their profile on booking.com says WiFi. but they had zero WiFi. and people we asked near by said they never have working WiFi. also the AC in my room poured water down the wall all night so I awoke to water all over the floor. they did fix it the next day but was a mess. also the AC at 3am would rattle and make loud noises. no one speaks anything but Portuguese but that is indicative on the island. also no furniture in the rooms. the bed. and a bookcase. no night table no lamp. very sparse

The host was great. It is a simple place, but what is available is done well. Clean rooms and bathrooms and well-functioning ACs.

Too pricey, but we booked late and during the high season, so keep that in mind.

Excellent location. Yummy breakfast. Good attention. I will be back.

Government has to invest in a reliable internet connection.

The staff was VERY nice. Luckily we didn't have to deal with the manager, because I only heard bad things about her. Carla (I think that's her name), was THE nicest lady ever. She should be the manager.

Overall, we had a good experience there.

Nothing

At $3000 for 4 nights this "hostel" was disgraceful. In disrepair, rooms aren't serviced, breakfast was disgusting with few options, stale bread and near rotten fruit. They don't offer the list of claimed facilities so if you make the mistake of staying here, arrange your own airport transfers and bring water, soap, kettle and your own food. They say they offer airport transfers, I received a message from them letting me know they'd placed the 50% hold on my card and requested flight details for said transfer, however, despite multiple attempts to contact them to confirm they received our flight details, we had no response. We arrived at the airport and managed to call them, they found someone that could speak Spanish and he came on a motorbike, then proceeded to call a taxi. So after waiting for about an hour, we finally got a taxi to this hovel. We were told on departure no airport transfer, then I asked again and they booked it. We arrived and were welcomed by a lovely lady but noone could speak English. We used Google translate to help with communication. So after a long day travelling to get to the island we were made to sit in the heat while we filled out a book of when we arrive and depart and also to make full payment. However they didn't seem to understand that their credit card terminals weren't connecting to the internet and after repeated attempts on multiple cards they looked at us like it was our fault. We explained we had used our cards throughout Brazil already, so it was not our issue. Eventually they let us into our room. The air conditioning was a relief but the room was nothing more than a cheap hostel/backpackers. With open unfinished wardrobes, filthy tiles in the bathroom, holes in the tiles seemingly where an alternative shower head had been, dirty glass, the architrave around the door was missing on one side, there was a small lizard living inside the hollow door and the fridge barely worked.
