This hotel is a bare minimum place. Stay here to save money and to be near (but not in) Pelourinho, but only if you are not planning on spending any time in the room. My wife and I were shown to a room that smelled like smoke (they are ALL smoking rooms we soon learned) and had a view of the other rooms. When asked to change to a room with a working phone, no cigar smell and a maybe even a view, they looked at us like we were a real pain and treated us poorly (maybe no one asks this there?). After hearing the guy in the room next to us snore through the night, we decided to leave. I liked the price but my wife had had enough. more
