Very little communication. The girl who let me in just showed me my room and that's it. If staff doesn't speak english maybe it would be a good idea just to leave some info in the rooms (what time is the breakfast and where it is, wifi password, check out time etc.) I didn't get any of this info. But luckily still got some breakfast at 9am on the terrace upstairs. The door locks. Wtf is that. I woke up in the middle of the night and saw my door open (just a little gap) and it is really scary situation when you are solo traveling woman. I made a conclusion that I just didn't close my door properly (the lock from inside is kind of rock science too) but all good. I survived but you just need to make sure to close that door with a little bit of force.. And the lighting in the room is pretty bad too.

Comfortable bed. Good location (close to everything). It was clean. I was able to leave my bag for a few hours after check out.

Hotel is ok but outdated, it needs new investment.

Breakfast was ok. Nothing wrong.

Not being able to stay for longer. Next time I will stay a while!

Ulisses and his wife are very friendly, helpful hosts. Delicious breakfast. Good size bedrooms with comfortable beds. Good value for money. Near airport, town centre and 10 mins from beach.

One of the best hotels that I have stayed in. Everything was clean and comfortable, The location is perfect just a few minutes to the beach, the city center, airport (by car or taxi). The owner Ulisses was the one who made the stay 10/10, he is very helpful, friendly and kind. Do yourself a favour and stay here the next time you visit sao filipe

A very comfortable stay - warm shower, aircon and shutters on the windows meant it was certainly one of the most comfortable places I stayed while travelling in CV on a budget. No complaints!

It's not that new and some walls mb need a lil bit painting but frankly it's not that important compared to everything else

It has the best location: 15-20 mins walking from the airport (you won't need a taxi if you doesn't have much baggage), 10 mins to the beach and 2-3 mins to grocery shops or restaurants Also the Aluger station you will find next to the Municipal Market which is 5 mins walking from the hotel. As for the hotel, of course it seems a lil bit tired inside, but everything works: you will have a super comfy bed, aircon, free wifi with good signal and even a fridge. On the upper floor there is a dining room where you can get glasses, plates or corkscrew if you need. Also there are some rooms with nice open balcony so you can get some take away food and chill here. Also you can ask for a laundry service, which is great foe those who travel with a backpack like me As for the brekfast, which is included: nice local coffee, super fresh bread, ham and cheese, butter and even peanut butter, hard boiled eggs and fresh local fruits. The best way to start your day. And you will be lucky if the owner will be there , once he brought fresh goat cheese and papaya from the market, it was so nice that you will never get anything better even at 5 stars hotel, I mean it. As for the owner: Ulysse has perfect English which is a lil bit exotic for Cabo Verde!

It is too loud. Around the house is too much traffic and people are crying.

I was somewhat surprised to find that the hot water was not running, and would stay that way for the rest of the ten day stay. This did not seem to amount to a big deal for anyone, even though Ulysses did apologise when I asked about it. In fact it looked like the personnel asked themselves why would one want warm water to only take a shower? To speak the truth, the water was less cold than you might think. Still each time it would take a while before that gasping feeling went away. Sorry, in a couple of occasions, breakfast fell short of complete

The owner, Ulysses, is a young, energetic welcoming and wholehearted man with a solid history of working and studying abroad who runs the family business himself. The dining hall where breakfast is served is spacious and airy with a fine little terrace offering a lovely view over the busy yet relaxing neighborhood. At the very belly button of downtown Sao filipe. The whole house is clean, spick and span one might say.
