Ótima localização. Café da manhã simples, mas funcional. Quartos simples também. Possui piscina e salão de jogos para entretenimento. Uma boa pedida para não precisar sair com o carro para visitar as principais atrações do centro de Penedo.

A limpeza do quarto poderia estar melhor e os travesseiros poderiam ser mais novos pois já indicavam bastaaante tempo de uso. Funcionários nota 10! O café da manhã era bom! Bom estacionamento tb. Gostei. Já é a segunda vez que fico nesse hotel e retornando a Penedo ficaria lá de novo.

Quarto limpo, café da manhã muito bom. A única questão foi a banheira de hidromassagem que estava com algumas partes faltando e um aspecto de antiga. Acabamos não usando. De resto, tudo excelente. Bem perto de tudo.

Disliked: Cleanliness
Fiquei na suite n°11 eu , esposa e um pet. A suite foi entregue sem ter sido limpa. As toalhas estavam molhadas, não tinha produtos de higiene.O que deu a entender é que o último hóspede saiu e não limparam e organizaram o quarto para nos receber. Observei, que falta um administrador mais presente para checar os desvios que os funcionários possam cometer. A localização da pousada é excelente, o café da manhã atende (precisa agilizar a reposição qdo falta algo). Estacionamento atendeu, não sei se atende na alta temporada.

Quarto limpo, porém um pouco velho e quente, mas tem ar condicionado que resolveu. Equipe de funcionários super atenciosos. Estacionamento interno, descoberto, mas satisfatório. Café da manhã simples, mas com suco de frutas não natural.

Infelizmente, nosso quarto estava estava com um cheiro terrível, pensando que era de fechado deixamos o ar ligado, e saímos, ao retornar meus pertences estavam em cima da bancada abaixo de ar e ficou tudo encharcado de água que havia vazado do ar. Minha esposa ao sentar em uma cadeira que estava quebrada se machucou, tampa do vaso sanitário estava quebrada, o aquecedor do chuveiro estava com problema. Chegamos para dormir por volta das 22:30 percebi que cheiro do quarto era suor, na roupa de cama e travesseiro. Não consegui dormir. Na manhã seguinte conversamos e conseguimos outra acomodação. Parece que pelas avaliações e o hotel que fiquei são propriedades totalmente diferentes. Mas percebi que todo o hotel está precisando de manutenção. A piscina estava com a água limpa mas todos os azulejos estavam com lodo verde. A escada estava quebrada. A localização do hotel é totalmente excelente, mas fica a dica para o proprietário começar realizar uma obra de recuperação.

É uma pousada simples. Quarto limpo e roupa de cama e banho limpas. Mas, as instalações são antigas e a manutenção é deficiente. O café da tarde é o ponto forte. O café da manhã é simples sem muitas opções.

Café delicioso. Localização 5 min do centro. Funcionários nota mil! Coisas a melhorar: Quartos precisam de reforma (fiquei em 2 diferentes e os dois com bastante rachaduras e mofo). E o quarto que tem banheira de hidro é só pra criança!!! Ou um adulto de no máximo 1.50 de altura.
