A acomodação não é moderna nem luxuosa. É simples porém aconchegante. A equipe de funcionários é muito simpática e atenciosa. Ar condicionado funcionando bem, limpeza em dia, um bom café da manhã, menos de 10 min caminhando da praia. Valeu a pena.

Bom

Todos do hotel era simpático e fomos muito bem recepcionadas. O café da manhã era delicioso. A única reclamação é sobre o lençol que era todo furadinho o que não esquenta muito e não estava com cheiro agradável e com marcas brancas.

Hostel próximo dos pontos principais

Fomos muito bem atendidos pelos funcionários e a estrutura do hostel atendeu as nossas necessidades. Saímos para o passeio e quando retornamos o quarto estava limpo e organizado. O hostel não possui estacionamento próprio, mas deixamos na rua e foi tranquilo.

Bem simples!

O Hostel é bem simples, e não tem microondas. No café da manhã acabava o pão e o funcionário ia buscar na hora, tipo simples mesmo.

Podría ser mejor el Hostel Villas Boas: podría mejorarse la comodidad en la habitación (sobre todo colchones y servicio de baño), muy buen desayuno (cantidad y variedad), atención en la recepción (muy amables y serviciales), hermosa piscina y buenas instalaciones de cocina comunitaria

Fiquei 05 dias no Hostel Villas Boas, em geral avalio como bom; no entanto, deveriam trocar a foto de propaganda, pois trata-se do local antigo o que não condiz com o local atual...
