Muito bom

Gostei bastante, ambiente acolhedor e perfeito pra descansar!! Pontos positivos: silêncio; redes; dispõe de air frair, churrasqueira, fogão, sanduicheira e liquidificador assim podemos preparar várias refeições. Pontos negativos: Sem cerveja disponível para vender; Reservamos quarto com 1 cama de casal e uma solteiro, porém botaram a gente num quarto só com cama de casal apertados, sem mesa e vimos que tinha outros um pouco maiores disponíveis, fiquei achando que isso se deu ao app estar em promoção e a diária ter saído por 89,99, porém não devia dar a opção de escolhermos no app então. Recomendo ir no instituto baleira jubarte visitar. Inteira 16, meia 8. Se forem no proveito tamar, ir apartir das 13:30 pois começam as atividades e visita guiada, valor de lá, 50 inteira, 25 meia

Bom custo-benefício

A pousada fica afastada da vila da Praia do Forte, bom para quem fugir do frege, mas precisa estar de carro. Quarto amplo e banheiro grande, com varal para as roupas molhadas. O anfitrião não se fez presente, tinha algumas dúvidas e dicas, e ele não estava disponível. A funcionária também não sabia informar. A pousada fica ao lado de uma propriedade com animais de granja, fui acordada muito cedo pelos galos vizinhos.

Péssima experiência. Banheiro com mal cheiro, limpeza horrível, atendente mal humorada, quarto apertado e banheiro com porta de PVC. Pra melhorar faltou água todos os dias de nossa estadia e tivemos que descer pra tomar banho no banheiro da aréa comum.

Não recomendo

Portas do banheiro sanfonada. Sem qualquer privacidade. Portas de entrada de alumínio tb não dão privacidade. Não fui atendido por ninguém. Não vi funcionários quando cheguei. Só avisou por zap que a chave tava na porta e incidiu número do quarto. Ar condicionado não funcionou. Limpeza muito a desejar. Sujeira nos banheiros e embaixo da cama.
