We knew it was a smaller, boutique hotel. It had great reviews, and we loved the location. When we arrived, the two young men in the reception were very helpful, and treated us to a glass of delicious ginginha. They helped us with our luggage to our room. In the room we saw a place of delicious and beautifully arranged snacks, and a handwritten welcome card. The room was large enough, the bathroom on a smaller side, but very elegant, modern and super clean. We loved the balcony and the expansive view from it. This location is stellar and we could not be happier with our stay. The breakfast we opted in for was very good, with great selection and varieties of things served each morning, freshly baked on site.
