Four of us spent 3 nights here recently after our Amazon River cruise. After a long flight from Manaus, we checked in about 1 a.m. Must admit that the first impression of our accommodations for 3 nights was not impressive -- 2 homeless men sleeping on the sidewalk with 2 mangy-looking dogs right outside the door. One man got up... More

Two senior couples spent 3 nights here, arriving about 1AM after flying from Manaus. First impression wasn't that good - 2 homeless men stretched out on the sidewalk close to the entrance; one got up & asked for $$. Young, non-English speaking female was at the front desk. Our room was on the 3rd floor - requiring hauling our bags... More

We had a wonderful stay at this hotel. Highlights include a great location (right across the street from a very popular beach with several other nice beaches nearby). While the hotel amenities are basic (they don't stock the room with toiletries for example and it takes a few minutes to get hot water) the hotel is clean and has a... More

This beach-front pousada is located in Barra, which is the best city beach in Salvador. The location is fantastic as we preferred to stay near the beach, rather than at Pelourinho - the historic centre. To go to Pelourinho, we simply took a short (and cheap) bus ride or a cab. Barra has plenty of good restaurants that are within... More

My experience at this hotel was great. The owner of this property carried my bags up the stairs to my room. Stayed at this hotel for 7 nights, room was cleaned daily and I was very secure at this property. Staff informed me of the breakfast prepared daily for its guest. The location is perfect. If you are looking for... More

To cut a long story short, I have never had as much trouble with accommodation as I have at this place, the roof leaked, the room wasn't cleaned and when I asked for clean sheets and a sweep the staff gave me attitude, misplaced things in my room and made me feel uncomfortable, wouldn't recommend this place to anyone, it'll...

This pousada has a great location across (a busy) road from a local crowded beach which had a great atmosphere although noisy. It is conveniently only a cheap bus ride from the historical centre of town.The building is quite old with stairs to 2 floors but had character and good free internet.The atmosphere was good with very friendly and helpful...

We stayed in Village Nova for 5 days and 4 night. Young couple who do not speak Portuguese. The location is perfect right across the road from the beach, although being near a corner where there are bars and music is played very loudly staying in a beach front room meant being kept up late or woken very early with...

I would not recommend this hotel. As usual there were a mix of pros and cons to staying here, but the cons outweighed the pros pretty significantly, especially for the price. The hotel seems a bit run down and when we arrived for check in, the girl who checked us in did not seem to know what was going on.... More

i stayed here for 3 days in November 2010! I really liked the staff, the location and the rooms. The staff was very helpful and went out of their way to make sure i had a great time in Salvador. The breakfast was also excellant, and i really liked the little cafe next to the hotel (owned by the hotel).... More
