If you have lived in Brazil this place will be great. If you haven't you might want to stay away. This place has the best location right on the beach. Just beware that the street lights don't turn off at night and people are up late and then others are up really early and aren't quiet. The AC worked great once I figured out I had to turn on a little breaker first. We stayed on the top floor that they have seemed to turn the roof to into 3 rooms with make shift walls. We saw 2 cockroaches which for the location I kind of expected but that freaked my wife out. If you are fine with a hostel type room that is private then this place is for you. If you have a certain quality standard that you expect when you stay somewhere, don't stay here. Overall I enjoyed the location and didn't have a problem with the facility.

The Pousada Marcos is cheap and gets the job done. But the breakfast was very poor.

Right on the boardwalk, nice view of the water!

clean, comfortable accommodations. Fast wifi(although it went out for a day while I was there). Very reasonably priced for my own single bedroom with air conditioning and a shower/bathroom.

Boa!

A pousada realmente poderia estar em melhores condições. Falta manutenção, mas entrega o que promete: a melhor localização possível! O quarto foi limpo todos os dias e o café da manhã satisfatório. Simples também, mas bolo quentinho, pão fresco, duas opções de frutas, sucos e café. Além de cuscuz e banana da terra e mais algumas coisinhas. Atendimento excelente de todos os funcionários. Eu volto!

Ar condicionado só pode ser ligado após o pessoal da recepção ligar no disjuntor deles, os lençóis não são muito limpos… o atendimento é muito tranquilo, ponto forte. A estrutura do local é antiga, precisa de reformas, mas além do atendimento a localização tb é o ponto forte do local.

Ponto positivo, localização, café da manhã,

Razoável, ponto positivo, localização, café da manhã, ponto negativo, fiquei hospedada duas noites, não limparam meu quarto e na última noite,quando cheguei de um passeio, tinha uma barata em cima da minha cama, isto significa que não dedetizam a pousada, não volto mais.

Contratei quarto quádruplo, porém cobraram Taxa extra para os menores. O prédio é muito antigo. Precisa de manutenção. Muito bem localizado, mas a estrutura deixa a desejar. Uma boa reforma faria milagres! A vista de frente para o mar é o que se salva!

Pousada antiga, escada de madeira rangendo, não tem elevador, fiquei no 3 andar. O colchão e o travesseiro são ruins, ar condicionado velho é muito barulhento. Só vale a pena a localização.

A pousada tem uma localização excelente, realmente o único ponto positivo. Ademais, a pousada precisa de manutenção urgente, café da manhã é repetitivo e a recepcionista além de ser grossa, dá informações erradas Não vou me alongar em criticar porque estava dentro do que eu esperava pelo preço, tirando a questão humana, o restante não dá para reclamar pelo que se paga. Fui sabendo que não era nem um 3 estrelas, como usei apenas para dormir e café, tudo certo.
