Pousada Pituba

I was grateful for the chance to stay here for a week. The rooms were clean, with clean sheets and a mini-fridge. Breakfast was served right on time every day, with a tasty range of things like cake, bread, couscous, boiled and scrambled eggs, fruit, juices, coffee, powdered milk, requeijão, boiled sweet potato, and boiled banana. Thank you so much!

I paid half after the owner gave me a price and confirmed everything was arranged, based on the arrival and departure dates and times I had shared. A few days later, she abruptly told me the price was much higher. The service was awful: she couldn't explain things clearly, wouldn't acknowledge her mistake, and blamed me instead.

My grandmother has stayed here for years when she comes from the countryside for appointments with her doctor nearby, close to Fundação Baiana de Cardiologia. She loves it because the owner and employee always welcome her warmly and she feels safe. I haven't stayed there myself, but knowing she feels at home, and that it's affordable and near her doctor, makes me rate it as a simple, good place. It's a house with basic rooms, not the grand inn the name might suggest. Think of it as a cheap, short stay in the area, not a holiday destination.

The only real plus is the location, near several places to eat, with a sense of security, and a police station nearby. Beyond that, it's an overpriced boarding house calling itself an inn. It's just a house split into tiny, makeshift rooms with office partitions, so there's no comfort or privacy. The bed was hard to lie on, breakfast was basic, and air conditioning costs an extra R$ 20,00.
