Ótima experiência.
Gostei da estadia e do atendimento de Ruan, muito atencioso. O ambiente é simples, mas aconchegante. Faz jus ao valor pago na diária. O café da manhã é muito bom. Apenas uma sugestão, que sejam colocados cabides nos quartos, para quando chegar da praia ter mais locais para colocar as roupas molhadas.
