Everything else! The view and cultural atmosphere, clean room

Very nice host. The house located in a local area which seemed to be safe. Nice and personal breakfast and the pousada itself is super cozy and beautiful. We had a hammock for our own balcony.

Beautiful and very well decorated old house in Santo Antonio, very close to all the fun of Pelourinho. Zhelina, the owner, is very welcoming and warm with lots of great tips about Salvador and fun things to do. She asks you to feel like you are in a friends house and I could say I felt that way, the house has a lot of natural light. Very lovely!

One of the best places we have stayed! The house is just beautiful! We immediately felt like home. The owner was lovely, great breakfast with fresh home made cakes , great location! Totally recommended!

It was tucked away, quiet and beautifully decorated and equipped. Fantastic breakfast in beautiful open room. Lovely friendly staff.

Very well located just next to pelourinho in a safe area with some restaurants, wonderful breakfast on a nice veranda! Very charming house.

A Zelina é uma excelente anfitriã. Dona de uma energia leve e gostosa, dá vontade de abraçar. O ambiente da acomodação é todo rústico, muito bonito. O colchão, travesseiros e toalhas são de excelente qualidade. A ducha do chuveiro é uma delícia. O café da manhã, impecável, dá pra sentir carinho em cada detalhe. A hospedagem fica a 20 minutos a pé do Pelourinho.

O café da manhã é ótimo. E a localização perfeita para conhecer pontos turísticos a pé.

Nossa gostei de tudo pra começar a dona da pousada super educada em todos os sentindo a café da manhã maravilhoso ambiente muito limpo situada próximo de muitos lugares legal prometo voltar ms vezes.

De tudo. Dona Zelina muito simpática e atenciosa. Boas acomodações, decoração linda. Ótima cama e chuveiro. Tudo limpo. Varanda com rede. Bom chuveiro. Ar condicionado e frigobar. Boa localização. E bom café da manhã. Voltarei certamente.
