Pousada Amigo João

The breakfast area was in a separate building, and it had the same cleanliness problems as the first one. It was cluttered and smelled dirty. The host was very friendly, but I felt he fell far short by offering guests an unhealthy place to stay. The room and bathroom were filthy, and the walls were dirty too. Since it was already late and I was worried I wouldn't find another place to sleep, I bought cleaning supplies at the supermarket on the corner and cleaned the bathroom myself with a broom from reception. I made the bed with my own sheets, which I always bring, and used my own pillow because the sheet on the bed was dirty. The mattress was very dirty as well. There was trash at reception, and although the mini-fridge was switched on, it was too dirty for me to use. Even before I got to the room, I noticed a strong bad smell in the hallway. The host sprayed air freshener to cover it up. The place has a decent structure, but the cleaning needs much more attention. On top of all that, loud music from the square across the street went on until around midnight, with cars and motorcycles revving constantly. I couldn't get a peaceful night's sleep. I don't recommend it.

The room worked perfectly for us, and the shower had nice hot water. We stayed from 9 a.m. Saturday until 2 p.m. Sunday, and the price was very good. The location right in the city center was handy, with everything close by. Since we'd arrived by train, the host gave us good suggestions for car rides to the outings we took. He was very friendly and helpful. We had a great stay and I recommend it. The city is wonderful.

Breakfast was plentiful and came with plenty of stories. We had a quiet, pleasant night, and Robner was a wonderful host. We're grateful for how welcoming and kind he was, and we'll definitely come back.

A pleasant, family-friendly place with good food, a great location, and a very good price.
