Better than in the pictures!
"Beautiful old house right in the middle of the historical colonial sector of Olinda. The free breakfast was varied, abundant, and delicious, and the personnel extremely helpful. They connected us with an excellent tour guide, Heider, who led us around Olinda and Recife."
