Reviews for Pousada Baobá

Review 1：Me cobraron la habitacion antes de llegar. He pedido la factura y todavia no me la han mandado por correo electronico. Booking me dio un precio y me cobraron un real mas por cada noche.

Review 2：desayuno, la senora de la casa.

Review 3：- The swimming pool is very small (too small to swim) - There's a menu in the room, but when we wanted to order food they told us we couldn't - It's located on a busy street just outside of the center. In the center itself it's actually a lot quieter.

Review 4：- Friendly and helpful staff (English speaking) - There's hot water in the showers - We could stay all day in the hotel (hammocks) on the day we were leaving, and use the shower just before departure - Nice breakfast

Review 5：It is on a busy road; therefore, the surrounding area is not very clean and a bit worrisome with walking after dark.

Review 6：It is only a couple of blocks away from the historic district of Olinda. The staff was very friendly and spoke some English. They were very accommodating, in that they allowed us a late check out because we were flying out later at night.

Review 7：is located in a busy and noisy street however rooms are in the back side and are less noisy The breakfast area and reception needs deep refurbishment and is dark, actually the area looks a bit old fashion and is noisy because located facing the main street. This is the entrance of the pousada and can cause a bad impression. The room is refurbished and was clean but it doesn't look that clean because the floor has stains No plugs near the bed to recharge mobiles Breakfast doesn't look appealing because of the breakfast area( it's a pity)

Review 8：Bed And pillows were confortable. Clean sheets Staff very friendly The swimming area and hammok area is nice (carefull with moskitos) Wifi free and good Warm water in the shower Breakfast has variety ( fresh fruit, sweet potato, eggs, bread, tapioca...)

Review 9：They need mosquito nets on the windows.

Review 10：The staff was wonderful, breakfast very good and the wifi was fast by brazilian standards! Good location, nice little pool to refresh you after a day of walking, and spacious room.

Review 11：hard to fault -room was spacious, comfortable bed and good bathroom One minor thing if I was to be picky is that our room had a bit of a musty smell due to humidity

Review 12：The staff were without exception helpful, friendly professional and accommodating The breakfast was sensational and abundant The atmosphere relaxing -nice small pool, hammocks, etc

Review 13：The rooms were a bit small, and the bed took up much of the room.

Review 14：The service at Baoba was absolutely fantastic, and there was no request too difficult. They brought out breakfast early when we needed to go to the airport, helped us heat leftovers, you name it. And the location was great - close to all of the sights in Olinda, and right next to a larger hotel where we booked our tours. Also, the value was fantastic - less than $100/night!

Review 15：With a mosquito screen covering the window it would be possible to sleep with the window slightly open and avoid the air conditioning

Review 16：English speaking staff and very helpful, nice breakfast, good location - very short walk to historic centre, good bathrooms

Review 17：Extremely small room, noisy, no window, breakfast Service totally inacceptable (90% of the items were used up at 08:00AM in the morning and no refills!), absolutely overprized (by far most expensive stay in 4 weeks Brazil), Overall experience by far the worst in 4 weeks Holiday in Brazil

Review 18：Staff were friendly and tried to help, Location relatively central

Review 19：Buses doing 60mph past door!

Review 20：Quality little pousada with helpful staff. Nice little pool, hammocks on shaded terrace.

Review 21：amazing breakfast, good wifi

Review 22：Nothing

Review 23：Good breakfast, clean, very friendly staff. Its a lot better than the 10 euro more expensive hotel next door.

Review 24：Fantastic staff, the best caipirinha, breakfast is delicious and full of local products and the location was perfect. We loved it all.

Review 25：Very well located for visiting Olinda.

Review 26：Quarto triplo demasiado pequeno.

Review 27：Cafe da manhã.

Review 28：Staff Breakfast

Review 29：Cute, friendly place to stay with excellent English spoken by all the staff. Great location and good advice given.

Review 30：The hotel is on a busy street and you can hear the street noise. The parking was a bit of an issue at times.

Review 31：The posada is small and really cute. The eating area was small and cozy. The food was great.

Review 32：Nothing major, room smelled very stuffy upon arrival and wifi didn't work until the next day.

Review 33：Nice pousada, nicely decorated with comfortable rooms. Staff was very friendly and location excellent.

Review 34：Friendly staff, clean / comfort rooms, close to the historicalcentre of Olinda, good breakfast, nice place around the swimming pool torelax in hammocks.

Review 35：The only thing that put me off was street it was located on .Very dirty.

Review 36：Very comfortable. The staff were fantastic!! Always helpful and anything we asked for they were willing to find out and help.

Review 37：Wifi does not work in the rooms. Apart from that my stay was very fine.

Review 38：Pousada Baobá is located close to the bus station and the central plaza of Olinda. Outside is a very busy street (the main street connecting Olinda to Recife) and traffic noise can be intense. But in the Pousada you will only notice it during breakfast, because most of the rooms are located at the back of the building. The staff was very nice and welcoming and most spoke quite good English. On weekends in February there is a lot of activity just a few hundred meters from the Pousada with music, food and a lot of people. You do hear the music in the room but I found it quite relaxing.

Review 39：The location could be better. The sea is only 2 minutes away which makes it beautiful, but unfortunately you have to walk 30-40 minutes to get a real beach (or take a 30-40 bus ride to Boa Viagem in Recife). The room included a balcony, but this wasn't there. If you want to eat lunch there you have to remember to order when having breakfast.

Review 40：The best thing about the pousada Baobá is the friendly staff that helped us with everything we wanted; all kinds of information, cab to the airport, transfer to Porto de Galinhas etc. The place was very clean and the breakfast and food were very good for a Pousada. The pool is also nice and clean and it's possible to stay in the shade right next to it. The free wi-fi is (as always) a great plus to figure out things to do when there. The value for money at this place is definitely excellent. We recommend it!

Review 41：difficulty communicating in English (but that's a common problem we encountered in most places), however, it somehow always worked out since people were really friendly and helpful

Review 42：very nice common area with hammocks and a miniature pool; nice breakfast; very friendly staff

Review 43：The personnel was extremly helpfull. When we needed something theyimmediatly took their phone to organize everything as we don't speakPortuguese, no matter how long it took them.

Review 44：Problem regulating the air.con.

Review 45：An oasis away from the noise and confusion of the city.Convenient to visit historic landmarks.Friendly and helpful staff. Comfortable beds. Excellent breakfast, especially coco tapioca.

Review 46：it was good

Review 47：The staff were very friendly and helpful. Only one person spoke english but we managed ok. A little haven inside but not very clean outside of the pousada.

Review 48：Humidity gave a fungi smell in the room and especially bathroom! Wi-fi stability and speed wasn't good.

Review 49：Very nice - although very small - garden and pool area. Very accomodating staff.
