The room was very large and faced the street. It was very clean and had everything I could want. Staff was nice about my checking in at 2 am. They also were gracious about letting me store my bags. The breakfast, which is included and just across the street, was very tasty and provided good people-watching opportunities. The hotel is near many of the museums and sites that I wanted to see. I went back to the neighborhood restaurant for dinner so that I didn’t have to go far at night. The dinner was quite good as well.

Bien situé, peu cher et bon service.

Un hôtel incontournable à Praia, peu cher, très propre, situé en pleine rue pietonne, avec commerces et restaurants. La chambre familiale est grande, un lit double, un lit simple et un lit bébé. Pour la réserver, mettre 2 personnes et envoyer un message à l'hôtel pour ajouter une troisième.
Le petit déjeuner est compris et très bon, surtout les beignets à la banane.
Le personnel est top (sauf une personne plutôt fermée).
Je le recommande.

Excellente localisation, mais...

L'hotel est très bien situé, très central.
Mais ca vient avec le bruit de la musique des restaurants autour jusqu'à environ 23:00, et on entend la réception située à l'étage en dessous (aire ouverte). Donc chambre très peu insonorisée...
Très bon petit déjeuné dans le restaurant situé juste en face, mais offert seulement entre 8:00 et 10:00.

pleasant room but with serious negative aspects

The room is actually very pleasant with attention for your comfort.
Fluffy towels and a table to work on. Night lights and a good shower with good pressure hot water. Nicely decorated also.
But - a very serious negative thing is the fact that you don't have a window outside, only facing the corridor and the atrium.
For privacy i had the windows closed which gave a somewhat claustofobic feeling.
Also it was very noisy - people arriving at night not realizing how their voices carry on.
The personal was correct but not really friendly.

Good location, bad service

Arrived late, as planned and the hotel knew ahead of time, and the door was locked. Had to ring the bell, yell, bang on the door for several minutes while being pestered by a begger the whole time. We didn't have any water and the person working at the desk just shrugged and said, \"the shops are closed\". The bathroom smelled of mildew, and there were holes in the shower wall. You could feel the springs in the bed matress. We asked for them to call a taxi in the morning and the desk clerk just said ,\"no\". On the positive side, it was well located, cheap, and pretty clean.

Great location

Great location on the main street of the plateau. Very clean. Breakfast is included but it's not at the hotel. You get a voucher for one of the restaurants near by. I was not impressed with the breakfast at Cafe Sofia. One of the benefits of having a hotel breakfast is being able to eat and get on with your day. I waited over an hour for coffee and a little ham and cheese sandwich.

You get what you pay for! Really convenient and the staff were so helpful with the breakfast option and even notified our tour guide that we went out to eat. Do not expect nor compare it to any Holiday Inn or Marriott because, it is not. A place to get some shut eye and even provided a hairdryer for my wife! Book it, coz we did. Thank you!

Good place for a night or twi.

The hotel is in a wonderful location. It was difficult for me to find however because it’s advertised as Boutique Hotel Santa Praia and the name is Posada Santa Praia. Why don’t they just use the name on the hotel? The bed was comfortable and shower had great pressure and plenty of hot water. The ceiling in the bathroom was peeling off and the wifi didn’t work in my room.

Chambre en plein centre-ville sur le plateau avec access sur la rue piétonne.
L'adresse indiquée sur le site est tout à fait inexacte, ce n'est pas rue Miguel Bombarda. J'ai mis 30 minutes à circuler dans le secteur avant de la trouver. C'est pas bien indiqué. Il faut savoir que aucune chambre n'a de fenêtres direct sur l'extérieur, la fenêtre donne sur le patient intérieur, ce qui crée une ambiance spéciale.

C’est très original, le personnel aux petits soins, c’est propre.
Petit bémol pour ceux qui n’ont pas un sommeil de plomb c’est le bruit dû aux coursives internes.
Nous avons utilisé la clim pour laisser la fenêtre fermée en debut de nuit ensuite nous l’avons ouverte au petit matin.
Le petit déjeuner au restaurant en face est super bon, copieux et typique.

Petit déjeuner servi dans le restaurant en face ou sur la place à l'arrière (concerts le soir).

Une horrible expérience

Le taxi n’était pas à l aéroport pour nous attendre comme prévu. En prenant un autre taxi, l’hôtel était fermé à notre arrivée. Apes avoir sonné et tappé à la porte Maine fois. Personne n’était là pour nous ouvrir, la rue était vide et nous étions seuls sans aide. Nous avons pu prendre un nôtre hôtel éventuellement. Ceci est la première fois que j’utilise hotels.com, je suis très déçu que vous travaillez avec des hôtels du genre.

Ruime kamers, mooi gedecoreerd.
Hotel ligt in een autovrije straat met restaurantjes en centraal in de stad.
Personeel was vriendelijk en gaf handige info al hing het er ook van af wie je had.
Het ontbijt is in hdt restaurant aan de overkant. Een mix van lokaal en internationaal eten. Wel niet voor gehaaste reizigers. Wij hebben op Paaszondag meer dan een uur moeten wachten op de menukaart en toen was zo goed als alles niet meer verkrijgbaar.
