Pousada Unique

The room had no mirror, the minibar was broken, and the shower had hardly any pressure. Even changing clothes felt awkward, since the window only had a small, thin curtain and people walking down the corridor could see in if you weren't careful. The bed was so bad that a hammock would've been more comfortable. Service was poor too. I wouldn't come back or recommend it to anyone.

The best things were the location, a good shower, and working air conditioning. Breakfast was short on choices, and at check-in nobody told us the Wi-Fi password or breakfast hours. There was no private parking, so the car had to stay on the street. That might be fine if all you need is a place to sleep. The room felt neglected, with dust and peeling paint, and part of the floor had no tile. The sheets smelled musty, and the bathroom had urine and traces of feces in it, with a terrible odor. The refrigerator was so loud that we turned it off because we were concerned about it. Noise was another problem: you could hear everything happening in the corridor, where people were already passing by early, and the window opened onto it. Without being careful with the curtain, your privacy could be invaded. For a similar price, I'd look for a better inn. Paying 50, 60 reais extra for a nicer stay seems worthwhile. If this is your only option, keep your expectations low.

The breakfast was satisfactory, and the room had the basic necessities. But the mattress sagged in the middle, and I had back pain for the whole week. My friend who came with me was given a room that seemed to have been put together on the spot. The noise was hard to ignore. Kids ran and shouted around the inn without anyone saying anything, and around 5 a.m. people were already talking loudly, banging doors, and going in and out of rooms.

My night there was disappointing. The room fell short too: a very hard mattress, dirty towels, barely any water pressure in the shower, and an old minibar that didn't work. When we asked questions, the attendant was quite rude and the service left a lot to be desired.
