I am only speaking about the restaurant, we were seduced by the menu board in the street and its meat and fish offerings at very reasonable prices, in addition the dining room is very clean with beautiful furniture and a superb atmosphere (large television with light sound), the menu is also partly in French or languages ​​other than Portuguese. Shrimp for my wife and octopus for me, good choice and good pick, it is tasty, plentiful and well presented and above all served hot, rare for the country!!! Service with a smile and typical local drink: boabab juice "bissap", a real treat. Little-known establishment but worth eating there without moderation.

Não é o que está publicitado, o quarto reservado não estava disponível, não houve WiFi nem TV durante toda a estadia, não limparam o quarto nem fizeram as camas, pequeno almoço fraco e com condições de higiene duvidosas. Ainda em obras. Piscina exterior é um pequeno tanque de água verde. Fogão a gaz mas com uma botija dentro do quarto. Manutenção má.
