Perfect location to discover the city on foot!

I loved the location. Everything is really close, museums, shops, restaurants, cafés and bars. It is also easy to meet fellow travelers and the hosts are very helpful and trusting!

The staff were really nice. Some spoke really good English, and I think many other languages too. They helped us rent a car from a guy they knew (trustworthy guy named Charles and everything went smoothly!) and later during our trip let us shower and keep our luggage in the dorm room for some money. Also arranged a taxi for us coming from and going to the airport. The owner's cat was really friendly too! The day we arrived our room's balcony door got some damage (because of the wind) and it was sunday so nobody could have come and fix it then and the lady was trying to do her everything to get us to onether room/place, but it didn't bother us so we were happy to stay as the door still closed and opened. They also gave us a lot of tips for Praia/Santiago.

Super welcoming, helpful and fast-responding hosts, with accomodation centrally located in Praia's plateau. The rooftop terrace is a wonderful place to start and end the day.

Suelly and her husband were both very warm, and willing to help in any way they could when I had questions about facilities in the area. They took the time to talk and listen. Very welcoming.

Stayed twice so copying my other review: Suelly was very welcoming and helped me out with sorting some transport. Room clean and comfy, bathroom clean too. House rules are clearly listed which I loved because everything is clear for you, and you know other guests should also be behaving respectfully. Highly recommend getting breakfast - I had the smaller option and it was lovely and great value.
