The hotel has a good location. Ponta Negra beach is a hilly area so be prepared. Reception was nice and helpful, two spoke English and one did not. Room was clean, large with only soap provided in bathroom. Air conditioning in my particular unit was good but loud with various noises. This did not bother me at all but may bother some.
Room was cleaned everyday to a good standard. Large flat screen tv mounted on wall. Using the phone is a bit tricky. I felt that the included breakfast was poor compared to similar hotels in Brazil...but you get what you pay for. Nice pool and grounds. Beach is a very short stroll down the hill. Many restaurants and stores in immediate area.
Overall a good budget choice.
