Disliked: Amenities
Its an older property that's in need of a major upgrade. The rooms and hotel in general were just okay. R$6 for a bottle water in the room was pricey. Also, I am sure I booked a room with a partial sea view but when I arrived I was told that I hadn't booked one and after arguing a bit, I was given a "courtesy" upgrade. Totally unnecessary.

Close to the beach

It was wonderful walking into the lobby, and realizing we were going to be staying here. The food was excellent, the service was great and apart from a couple minor bumps this was easily the most enjoyable experience I've ever had at a hotel. Loved the city of Fortaleza as well.

Hotel close to the beach. Kind staff but less efficient, no luggage carried. Old furniture a bit degraded. Catched some cockroaches in room. Wireless available only for one user. Good food but less cared, cakes exposed to flies. In short, is an hotel for a pleasant stay at beach without waiting to have some comfort details.

Good experience overall. Service is not quite up to US standards, but this hotel is one of the better ones we have stayed at in Brazil. Food was above average in the restaurant and in the three private banquets we attended.
