Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The hotel appears to be made of different buildings. Because of this, it makes the hotel wonderful to explore. The breakfast is also very nice, with a wide variety offered. Two of us were there for nine days. The room we were in was very nice but a little sparse as it didn't have a place to unpack your clothes. All of the staff were very friendly and helpful. We would definitely stay again.

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
The information for this property is misleading, the info says it is located in the center, and the hotel is a fake replica of the buildings in the historic district of São Joao del Reí, so that it appears as if the property is located right on the historic district which it is not, it is located by a high speed road and a 20min walk from the town center. We had cars cruising by at high speed and loud noises all night. Breakfast buffet was good, probably the only good thing about the property.

Arquitetura regional preservada. Lindo

A localização é ótima. A estrutura e a identidade do lugar são os pontos MUITO fortes. Acredito que seria interessante dar uma renovada nos colchões e nos lençóis, estão desgastados e não ficam condizentes com o geral.

Hotel regular.

O staff é muito atencioso. O local é limpo, agradável, bem localizado. O colchão é bem desconfortável. O banheiro é bem apertado, embora o quarto seja grande. O café da manhã é razoável, mas, coerente com o preço. O serviço de restaurante deixa a desejar. O maior problema é a a divisão dos prédios, e, com a chuva, os degraus ficam molhados. Falta uma cobertura que permita um deslocamento mais seguro.
