I was pleasantly surprised by my stay at the hotel. The rooms were clean and much better than I expected, although they could use some updates in terms of decor and paint. The location was excellent, right across a beautiful stretch of beach on Avenida Boa Viagem. The service was top-notch, with helpful staff who even informed me about a planned electricity shutdown. The dining options were diverse and overall good, although some aspects could be improved. Despite some minor issues, my experience was positive overall.

The hotel's rooms are well decorated and comfortable, but lack a cozy atmosphere. The service is warm and helpful, though there is room for improvement. The location is excellent, right in front of the beautiful Boa Viagem beach. The dining experience offers a variety of Brazilian specialties but could do with some enhancement. Overall, a decent stay with some room for growth.
