Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Room quality can vary — While many guests praise room comfort, a few mention that certain rooms (like the standard double) were stunning, but others found them less remarkable.
- Limited on-site amenities — As a 2-star property, there's no fitness centre or spa, and the pool is the main recreational feature.
- Check-in window ends at 23:00 — If you arrive late at night, you'll need to plan accordingly, as check-in is only from 14:00 to 23:00.
- No pets allowed — The pousada does not accept pets, which may be a drawback for travellers with animals.
