Xica da Silva Pousada

The service was poor, and there weren’t many people around. The location isn’t great either, though the place is comfortable and spacious.

Great.

I was extremely upset about paying R$ 800,00 for a night when there wasn’t even basic comfort. The room had six outlets, but only one worked, and it was the old type. My wife tried to use the hair dryer they provided, but there was no compatible outlet. The listing photos also didn’t match the actual inn. The double bed seemed sized for someone no taller than 1.60m, so I spent the night with half my legs hanging off. The bathroom drain was clogged, the shower enclosure wouldn’t close all the way, and water spilled out until the bathroom was like a pool. The room door had problems too: the key stuck in the latch, and it took an absurd amount of effort to open or close it. The parking area looked completely abandoned. The receptionist seemed unprepared. We went out for dinner and came back to find our room key on the reception desk with nobody nearby, putting guests at risk because of the lack of security. I don’t recommend this inn and will never return.

We came back with new companions, and they liked it too. It was another excellent stay. Breakfast is varied, the hosts and staff are incredibly friendly, and the atmosphere is cozy, with pleasant conversation. Special mention to Cleiton at reception, who gave us great tips. We recommend it and will be back.
