The location was excellent. The room was large with a terrace. The apartment is big.
They helped me get a SIM card.
They try very hard to conserve resources like water, electricity, which I appreciate.
Despite the info on the website (including pictures) it was hard to find the hostel.
I didn't know there was no hot water in the shower so we boiled water. Was it mentioned on the website?
*** After spending more time in Cape Verde I realized that's typical of a budget accommodation.
Kitchen - more dishes?

I highly recommend this hostel, if you are staying in Praia it will be your best choice. Perfect location, right in the city center. The owner of the hostel, Carlos, is a very nice person who will certainly help you organize your stay on the island of Santiago. Well-equipped rooms, access to the kitchen. Definitely worth it.

Living like a local in the heart of Praia. Carlos is the most beautiful and warm hearted soul you can wish for, helping out with everything you need. I recommend you hire him as a guide too, to discover the city of Praia, I had such a wonderful time and lots of fun. I also felt very safe here, as a solo female traveller. Grateful for everything!

I spent only few hours at night between 2 flights but I am greatfull for the help I received to book a taxi for the airport.
Very difficult to find especially at night , taxi did not know the place. I found it only thanks to a very friendly neighbour who walked with me lookong for the place at 11pm and even he called the manager to ask for the exact location. Thanks Praia people.
The place was not kept in very good condition but for few hours why not.

Cheapest option around, you get what you pay for. Basic dorm in private apartment. Kind but slightly distracted owner.
Very warm room, no fan, very squeaky beds, location is a bit out of the way.

individual rooms not much more expensive than the dorms … had a look at the dorm and it’s very large
kitchen and large terrace
large bathroom
Carlos knows well the island and is responding accurately and timely to questions via what’s app
he speaks good English ( very rare on Santiago island )
very convenient to the market where you can take busses to other cities
difficult to find as not the correct number number 5 but on booking it says number 2. in the block of goat and no indications that we have arrived at the correct address too
no hot water for the shower
very large terrace but no seating nor table there to enjoy the outdoor space
4.5 / 5.0
The host and personal is very friendly and look after you. They are always available and helpful for any questions or tips concerning the area.
The internet is stable and quite fast so also remote work was possible without problems.
I can recommend this place if you look for a good stay in Praia

The host is just amazing! Great communication via Whatsapp. He even picked me up from the airport at 01.30 at night! Also gave me extensive advice and directions when I asked. Super friendly and welcoming! The accommodation is just as described, and clean spacious bathroom; everything you need. Location is good, in the city centre, close to shops and supermarket.
Shower was cold water only, but not big problem
4.0 / 5.0
Easy, convenient location to the local market as well as connectivity to buses for trips to Assoumara, Tarrafal, Cidad da Vella and more! Also easy to walk home after going to the supermarket and having drinks or dinner around Plateau area! The owner, Carlos, is extremely helpful and warm and we explored local neighbourhoods to see bars, street food, salons and local homes, which usually tourists wouldn't get to see!
5.0 / 5.0
The place is nicely located. And the owner is one of the most amazing person I came across.

The location is close to the city center. You will have plenty of space in the room and all the areas.
But what I really liked was the exchange with Carlos, he is really friendly and helpful. I really recommend you his place !

4.0 / 5.0
I consider this place as good.
Location is ok, quite close to the airport.
Tcharles the owner is really helpful and available (he welcomed me at 2 am !), furthermore, fluent in English.
This place is a new challenge for Tcharles so he is always happy to hear your requirements.
There is always beter somewhere, but for me the asked price is right.
I already booked this place for my last night in Cabo Verde before my return flight.
And yes, the place needs "evolution".
Three rooms available, the one on the street side is of course a bit more noisy.
