10/10 Excellent
"Catavento sin duda fue de los mejores hostels que hemos ido. Para destacar, su desayuno es espectacular, abundante, variado y rico, excelente para comenzar la jornada. Las instalaciones comunes son muy buenas, hay espacio de cowork y bar, la pileta es un diez, limpia y el agua a una temperatura muy agradable. También destacamos que hacen eventos y estan incluidos para los huéspedes, como fiestas o shows de música en vivo. La habitación doble que alquilamos fue cómoda, con baño privado y un balcón con hamaca. Buena cama, ducha caliente, Smart tv y frigobar. Nos sentimos sumamente cómodos durante toda la estadía, el personal excelente, muy atentos, inclusive la dueña siempre estuvo presente. Por último, la ubicación es muy buena, sobre la calle principal y a distancia caminando de varias playas y cerca del centro. A Praia do Amor fuimos varias veces porque estabamos a 10 minutos caminando. Sin dudas recomendamos mucho este Hostel para quien quiera conocer Pipa y pasarla bien."
