Charming sitting area on 2nd floor (although I didn’t get much use of it because it was raining for most of the weekend I was there. Breakfast was excellent - every day there were 2 different juices to pick from, a different cake every day, artisan preserves for the bread basket. Eggs, tapioca, cuzcuz to order. Very attentive service and the staff couldn’t have been any more gracious. Also, it rained a lot while I was there and Shopping Barra is only a 5-minute walk from the hotel. I spent time in the mall, people watching.

    The staff are all very friendly and welcoming The hostel is also 5 minutes walk from Pelourinho Square so perfect for exploring the old town of Salvador. The breakfast was good and I liked the fresh fruit and juices lthough I thought some of the things could be labelled as they are traditional Bahian dishes and a foreigner obviously won't know what they are (sweet or savoury).

    Beautiful boutique place with wonderful hosts! The room and the bathroom were spacious and light, nicely decorated and clean. The bed was large and very comfortable. The location is also great, right in the heart of Pelourinho, but quiet at night. Also very safe, there's always police around the corner (we checked out at 4 am and police was there as usual). Hosts were extremely kind, helpful and just fun to chat with, we left like staying with ckose family or friends.
