Room was nice but many steps to get to it. More expensive for the town.

Overall our stay was good, the people were great but the room felt very muggy. The surrounding area is nice though and the location is good for the price.

Good place. Lots of mosquitos. Bring repellent. 8/10

This was my first trip to Brazil and staying at this pousada was a great way to start. The staff is friendly (although no staff members speak English, from what I could tell), the property is VERY well maintained, and the breakfast buffet selections were excellent and filling. Note that the property has MANY steps, so if you have trouble walking, you should request staying in the "upper" building as opposed to the "lower" building farther down the hill from the lobby. The patio and pool area (with a lovely view of the mountains) is located between the two buildings, midway down the slope. One upside to staying in the lower building is that it is far from the main street and therefore much quieter. The hallways in the lower building (where I stayed) have hardwood floors and motion-sensor lights, so that can be disruptive to sleeping (earplugs and eyemasks highly recommended).
