That said my wife did get bored of the selection & was sad we only got papaya fruit one day. Room was well cleaned each day and it was a very spacious suite. In terms of complaints the wifi was quite slow at times, the shower didn't drain super quickly (so we were scared we might accidentally flood the bathroom), but the most annoying part was the pushy guy with his shop at the bottom of the stairs of the hotel entrance. You had to go past this as you left the rooms to the outside world, and he tried to sell us his wares (the same wares which they sell in every other shop in Sal for that matter so nothing special to buy). He gave up after 4-5 days but still, I'm in a hotel and I don't appreciate having to talk down this fella trying to sell me trinkets every time I leave my hotel. Please get rid of this shop or at the very least put it in another spot. It is not indicative of a 3 star hotel having one of the staff members try push his side hustle on you every time you want to go in & out of the hotel. He was a nice enough guy but I mean it's not the place to try sell things and give hassle to hotel guests. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 7 nights in Mar 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Per 23 Jan 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort #### Centralt läge i Santa Maria Ett tre stjärnigt hotel, väldigt centralt, mitt i Santa Maria.

If you had any questions staff were always helpful. Large clean rooms, fully equipped kitchen and balcony with ocean view. Would live there again. ##### Maria Stayed 7 nights in Nov 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Silu,Netflix , Bern/Schweiz 22 Apr 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### 2min zum Surfstrand Mitten im Städtchen Gutes Morgenessen Freundliche Leute Gutes Bett/Matratze ##### Silu,Netflix Stayed 9 nights in Apr 2018 ### 8/10 Good #### Ulrich 7 Mar 2018 Liked: Staff & service #### Gute wenn auch einfache Unterkunft Gute, wenn auch durch die Straße im Zentrum nicht gerade ruhig Lage in Santa Maria. Freundliches Personal. Das Frühstück ist recht einfach gehalten.

Wechseln der Handtücher muss man erinnern. Zimmerreinigung nicht regelmäßig. Frühstück sehr spartanisch, keine Abwechslung. Personal sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 7 nights in Jan 2018 ### 6/10 Okay #### Simon 22 Jan 2018 Liked: Staff & service #### Ok til prisen Fin beliggenhed i Santa Maria og ok Hotalværelse til prisen.

Funcionários cordiais e acomodações confortáveis. Local próximo a tudo é muito perto da praia. O banheiro poderia ter um box completo pois ao tomar banho respinga água no chão o que suja muito o quarto e acomodações. O café da manhã muito a desejar, creio que pelo hotel estar praticamente vazio não houve um cuidado em preparar um café honesto. Fora isso uma boa opção. ##### Thiago Pedro Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2017 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jyrki 4 Apr 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Very nice hotel near everything with nice staff! We went to our holiday with only one basic idea which was to relax. We booked this hotel because it was affordable and near the beach. At the first day when we arrived, we noticed that hotel personnel were kindly smiling to us and they made us feel really welcome. Check-in / check-out was really easy and staff spoke perfectly understandable english (which I think is pretty rare at Cape Verde). I base this on experience to another (way more expensive Hotel ) which had a staff who couldn't serve us on the way we atleast expected. Anyway stay at this hotel was really easy. Rooms where cleaned daily and we never felt any lack of trust there. If we needed any help, staff were helping us on any needs we had, all from sending our post cards to giving recommendations of good restaurants etc. Specially Daniel and George (from reception) were the best. Location of hotel was excellent because it was relatively close to beach and restaurants, still it was quiet enough from the sounds of the centrum. Me and my wife have been travelling very much and I can easily recommend this Hotel because it is worth every penny. Thank you! ##### Jyrki ### 6/10 Okay #### patrick, marignac 23 Jan 2017 #### Hôtel accueillant proche de la plage Les capverdiens sont très sympas et respectueux par contre ils sont très brillant ##### patrick ### 4/10 Poor #### Silvia, Lausanne 9 Jan 2017 Disliked: Property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Hôtel à éviter absolument. Chambres en piteux états, absolument rien à voir avec les photos. Pas de réception 24/24. Pas de TV. Problème d'eau. Cuisine équipée mais pas entièrement (une seule tasse- une casserole - 1 cuillère à café). Pas de linge pour la plage. Pas assez de linge pour la douche. Ampoules ne fonctionnant plus, pas changées. Prises ne fonctionnent pas toutes. Climatisation ne fonctionnait pas partout. Baignoire toute pourrie. Bruit très important venant de la rue (vitre des chambres en papier). Travaux au marteau-piqueur dans l'hôtel. Petit déjeuner de moyenne qualité. Personnel agréable et surtout qui a dû beaucoup s'excuser durant notre séjour car tous les clients étaient plus ou moins mécontents. Service de nettoyage correct. ##### Silvia ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Apartments Bowness-on-Windermere](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bowness-On-Windermere-Apartments.d55505-aaApartments.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [Hotel Floresta](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tias-Hotels-Hotel-Floresta.h7848147.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels near M&S Bank Arena](https://www.expedia.co.uk/MS-Bank-Arena-Hotels.0-l6078871-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Sky Hotel Kraków](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Krakow-Hotels-Sky-Hotel-Krakow.h67339747.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels near Hampden Park](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hampden-Park-Hotels.0-l6081477-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Orton Hall, Royalist Suite](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Penrith-Hotels-Orton-Hall.h33962557.Hotel-Information) > > [Makris Yialos Apartments](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kefalonia-Hotels-Makris-Yialos-Apartments.h51850576.Hotel-Information) > > [Cottages Ogmore-by-Sea](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ogmore-By-Sea-Cottages.d3000430234-aaCottages.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [Spa Hotels in Nice](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Nice-Hotels-Spa-Hotels.0-0-d180102-tSpaHotels.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [VOI Praia de Chaves Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Boa-Vista-Hotels-VOI-Praia-De-Chaves-Resort.h3018337.Hotel-Information) > > [Historic Hotels in Bournemouth](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bournemouth-Hotels-Historic-Hotel.0-0-d654-tHistoricHotel.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Murdeira Village Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sal-Hotels-Murdeira-Village-Resort.h9757219.Hotel-Information) > > [Mercure Hurghada Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hurghada-Hotels-Mercure-Hurghada-Hotel.h28208.Hotel-Information) > > [Marlin Apartments Commercial Road - Limehouse](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-Marlin-Apartments-Commercial-Road-Limehouse.h11281866.Hotel-Information) > > [All-Inclusive Hotels in Philippines](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Destinations-In-Philippines-All-Inclusive-Hotel.0-0-d145-tAllInclusiveHotel.Hotel-Filter-Destinations) > > [100 Queen's Gate Hotel London Kensington, Curio Collection by Hilton](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-100-Queens-Gate-Hotel-London.h22478.Hotel-Information) > > [The Soho Hotel, Firmdale Hotels](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-The-Soho-Hotel.h1112611.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Riu Palace Boavista - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Boa-Vista-Hotels-RIU-Palace-Boavista-All-Inclusive.h24398112.Hotel-Information) > > [InterContinental Bora Bora Le Moana Resort by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bora-Bora-Hotels-InterContinental-Le-Moana-Resort-Bora-Bora.h1876715.Hotel-Information) > > [Occidental Boa Vista Beach](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Boa-Vista-Hotels-Royal-Horizons-Boa-Vista.h3533293.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Indigo Bangkok Wireless Road by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bangkok-Hotels-Hotel-Indigo-Bangkok-Wireless-Road.h8206906.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from Belfast (BHD) to Edinburgh (EDI)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/bhd/edi/belfast-to-edinburgh) > > [Flights from Málaga (AGP) to Lisbon District (LIS)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/agp/lis/malaga-to-lisbon) > > [Flights from London (LHR) to Pisa (PSA)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/lhr/psa/london-to-pisa) > > [Flights from Manchester (MAN) to Cluj-Napoca (CLJ)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/man/clj/manchester-to-cluj-napoca) ### Cars > [Van Car Hire in Middlesbrough](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Van-Car-Rentals-In-Middlesbrough.d6557-tVan.Car-Rental-Guide-Class) ### Activities > [Things to do in Aberdeenshire](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Things-To-Do-In-Aberdeenshire.d603233.Travel-Guide-Activities) > > [Things to do in Omis](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Things-To-Do-In-Omis.d6058588.Travel-Guide-Activities)
