At the hostel, each room has a wardrobe. With a private bathroom fitted with a shower and free toiletries, rooms at Verde Cantinho also boast free WiFi. At the accommodation, rooms come with a flat-screen TV with cable channels. Stepping into this hotel felt like entering a sanctuary, where modern comfort blends beautifully with charming architectural touches. From arrival, the thoughtful design and attentive service were evident. Our room offered both comfort and style, with a plush bed and generous space that matched the online photos. The bathroom stood out for its clean design, perfect water pressure, and a luxurious feel. The hotel’s shared kitchen, bright and well-equipped, was perfect for preparing meals or storing snacks. Despite an unusually hot spell, the efficient and quiet air-conditioning kept our room cool and welcoming after long days exploring the city. The location is ideal—just a 15-minute walk from the bus station and close to a mall with a small Auchan, making travel and errands simple. Service was exemplary. We needed early check-in, and the staff accommodated us with genuine warmth and efficiency, making a lasting impression. Throughout our stay, every interaction with the staff was friendly and helpful, whether offering recommendations or directions. The hotel’s proximity to the city’s highlights—cathedral, tower, castle, and tranquil parks—added to our enjoyment. Food lovers will appreciate the abundance of cafes and restaurants in the neighborhood, making each day’s plans effortless. In summary, the gorgeous rooms, immaculate bathrooms, inviting kitchen, and outstanding hospitality created a memorable experience. We would absolutely recommend this hotel to anyone seeking comfort, convenience, and genuine care during their visit.

The Pousada features accommodation in gender-specific dormitory rooms, as well as in private twin rooms. The dormitories have access to shared bathroom facilities, while the twin rooms have their own private bathroom. Free WiFi access is available. I had great experience during my stay there. I got very clean and warm room with private bathroom. I got same facilities like star hotel although I booked just for four bunk bed male dormitory. Breakfast was excellent. I will again stay there with group of my friends in future.
