Great location for visiting Pelourinho and to catch the ferry to Itaparica. Staff was friendly. We arrived 30 mins before check in and were allowed to check on after the room was checked. Room is spacious.

“Wouldn’t recommend this neighborhood for tourists. The neighborhood next to the beach felt much safer.”
Located in the historical center

Very lovely staff. I arrived at 7am and they let me stay in the common area until my bed was ready. They also kept my backpack for free the next day. Kitchen, good shared room and great location.

“Best Accommodation and staff we experienced in Salvador”
The owner Natalia was very accommodating. She made sure our stay was comfortable and offered great communication. When she was not present her staff members Sandra and Marcel were really friendly and helpful. The rooms were some of the best we stayed in Salvador after a 3 week stay. The location is very good, right by all the attractions of Salvador. The beaches are not far away at all (Uber).

“good location”
Great location in Carmo just next to Pelourinho and Santo Antonio in the city centre, close to shops and restaurants, clean rooms and toilets. Good A/C and the staff are very friendly and helpful, the shared kitchen is decently equipped. Metro station (Campo da Pólvora) is a little bit far, about a 12/15 minute walk.
