"Emplacement juste en dessous du plato pour séjour authentique et pourtant très proche du centre de Praia à pied, 10 minutes. Nilton est aux petits soins pour ses hôtes, très bienveillant. L'appartement est très confortable et pratique. Comme dans beaucoup d'endroits au Cap Vert il n'y a pas l'eau chaude mais cela n'est pas gênant même au mois de janvier. Nous sommes enchantés de notre séjour chez lui. Il y a des jeux publics pour les enfants presque en face de l'appart! Merci Nilton!!"

6/10 Okay
"The hotel has nice views, but the bathrooms need renovation. The shower is not working properly, and the hall bathroom needs renovation. The food there isn't that good, especially the steak. They don't have an iron in the room they charge you for ironing your clothes.the pool for me needs two more stairs holding."
