Guest Reviews

• Thierry (9/5): - Appartement confortable. Cuisine commune. Le frigo était un plus. Même si c'est un peu loin du plato, le quartier est sympa. Le propriétaire était réactif et nous a communiqué un contact pour un taxi pour l’aéroport tôt le matin. La douche ne coulait pas beaucoup
• landi (7/5): -
• Paula (10/5): Excedeu minha expectativa. - Lugar acessível, tranquilo e bem localizado.
• Ana Tereza (10/5): Excelente - Gostei do espaço, bem localizado, atendimento Top.. Toalhas estava muito usada...
• Antonio (7/5): - Da localização Autoclismo não funcionava
• Kamran (10/5): - Great location. All facilities available. Fast internet and very accommodating manager who is ready to help you in everything.
• Elena de Cima Martín (10/5): -
• Dramé (8/5): Super - La situation géographique avec énormément de restaurant, supermarché et shopping…le calme du quartier, le confort du lit. RAS
• Qingjie (10/5): - 非常愉快的体验！入住很方便灵活，房间也非常干净舒适，性价比之王！房东还会说中文，强力推荐！！
• Raffaello (7/5): -
• Barbara (9/5): Nice place to stay for a small price - Central location in a safe and beautiful neighborhood of Praia. The house is stylish and very nicely decorated and clean. The host family is very friendly and helpful. There is the possibility to cook and do the laundry. A large roof terrace with a view over the city to the sea invites you to linger. All in all, a very nice and well-kept accommodation. Many shops and various restaurants are within a few minutes walking distance Everything great 😃
• Helder (8/5): -
• Ralf (9/5): Perfect location in Palmarejo. I would always go back there - Perfect location. Easy check-in by the taxi-driver organized by the property. Big room with nice bathroom. Great AC. Huge shared living room and roof top terrace. Well equipped shared kitchen. The cleaning ladies always cooked in the community kitchen which left a smell in the hole house for the afternoon and evening, but it was only bothering when you got in or if you wanted to spend time in the shared spaces.
• Isabel (5/5): - Localização A cama não é confortável
• DIEGO (1/5): Gros problèmes de communication ! - Gros problèmes de communication avec les gérants de cet établissement ! Je n'ai certes pas répondu à leur proposition de taxi de l'aéroport, la réservation sur Booking était active et je leur ai même communiqué l'heure de mon arrivée. Une fois arrivé à l'adresse indiquée, vers 23h, ils m'ont répondu que je ne pouvais pas faire le check-in. J'ai dû me débrouiller pour trouver un autre hébergement ! Par ailleurs, ils m'ont dit qu'ils font payer une supplément si le check-in a lieu après 18h ! Gros coup de stress à Praia !
• Júnior Cezar (7/5): -
• Hugo (10/5): Confortable et bien pensé - Situé dans un quartier tranquille et plutôt animé, proche de toutes commodités. Tout était propre et confortable, pas de clim mais un ventilateur plafond qui suffisait pour passer la nuit. Rien à redire merci ! Rien en particulier.
• hamza (8/5): -
• Zoe (9/5): -
• Ana (10/5): - Habitación muy grande y limpia completamente equipada. El alojamiento tiene cocina completa y está en una zona con muchos restaurantes y tiendas. El anfitrión muy amable, se encargó de ponernos en contacto con un taxista para que nos lleve al aeropuerto que fue extremadamente puntual. Todo un acierto de alojamiento Todo fue perfecto!
• MAURIZIO (10/5): - rápida nas respostas da Isa a limpeza do apartamento é a localização
• Shackie (10/5): Exceptional - Very nice place. Super friendly staff. Next to a main road, but very quiet. Highly recommended.
• Allan (1/5): Bad - As a positive thing, we could say we met a nice couple in the house that were also traveling around Cape Verde and with whom we had a nice chat and that helped us finding the place too. Room was ok, although it ended to be much more expensive than expected (read below). I've never felt so scammed using Booking before. It was super hard to find the house: we never got a specific address to go to, there were no signs of the place in the building and there were no pictures of how the building looked like from the outside. After spending an hour looking for the place, ringing random doors and asking around (luckily we speak Portuguese and could ask locals) we managed to find the place. When contacting with the owner he told us he decided our booking was not valid because we didn't specify at what time we were arriving. Then, saying he was "making us a favor" by sending someone to give us the key, he charged us 15 extra euros (when were paying 28 euros- excluded the taxes they added afterwards, of course). He said it was because he had to awaken the worker (at 7:30pm?!?!) so that she could cross the whole city, since she lived very far away (but then got to the place within 15 minutes) and that the extra money was for paying the taxi she didn't come with, since she arrived with a normal car, without forgetting taxis charge tourists 4 or 5 euros to move around the city. He also wanted to make me responsible for his lack of management, as it was written on the page that an extra fee could apply if we arrived later than 6pm (which although it was true, it was to be found in a long text I would have never expected the fee it to be that high either). The owner kind of made us feel we were lucky to have the opportunity to pay him 15 extra euros to "help us out", so that we could sleep in the place we booked in advance (so I presume I should be thankful?). I would recommend travelers to book somewhere else.
• Thomas (9/5): Clean, spacious apartment with well equipped kitchen and roof terrace. -
• Adri (10/5): Exceptional - Very helpful and flexible owner
• Antonio (10/5): Exceptional -
• Paulius (8/5): Very good -
• Steven_t. (10/5): Nice house in Praia - Good facilities, clean rooms, responsible host, good restaurants nearby, easy access to public transport. The water supply was not stable during the first two nights, but fixed later.
• Kouadio (9/5): A good place to be - The local and building. The availability of the manager. Non
• Jade (6/5): Mixed feelings abt this but, nice propert - So, first and for reference, I am Capeverdean and from Praia(used to live really nearby actually), I moved to a different Island for work and had some things to do in Praia for a week. I want to make this review as detailed and accurate as possible since this is a new property with no reviews on here, hope it helps. The property itself is very well located, in the heart of Palmarejo, you have plenty of restaurants (affordable for every budget). Very clean apartment, smelled great throughout my stay, it has a nice seating area (rooftop), aspacious living room with open concept kitchen. The bed is comfortable, so is the couch and like stated you get a flat screen TV, and all house appliances for a long stay. Spacious and located in a quiet and safe neighbourhood. I thought I was getting a full apartment as stated here on booking but we actually get a room in a shared apartment with other guests, and in my case a shared bathroom also. I thought I was getting more privacy than I actually did. 1st 3 to 4 days was fine, sharing the apt with a really nice Portuguese man then, he left and, an extremely rude couple checked in. Lol Only one of the rooms has AC, mine had a ceilling fan and so did the living room. Also my bedroom was right under a glass skylight which made the bedroom as hot as an oven, the only way for me to sleep in it was if I let the door and fan open throughout the day (but the cleaning lady would come into my room and turn it off, she also told me I couldn't have it open because the last light bill was around 160USD the prior month) Another thing I didn't like was the fact that I couldn't cook in the kitchen because the stove and oven do not work and the property owner said that because of "smell" I'd have to only use the microwave or cook at the rooftop (a VERY small space with very little ventilation, I did cook there once and it was hot as hell) Also, the property is listed as child friendly and that children of all ages are welcome but according to them they have a child free policy (my son came spend the day with me for 2 days in a row) and because of that I was asked to leave the property before the anticipated date. (No issues there since I was already looking for somewhere with more privacy to stay but, yeah the booking description of the property is definitely misleading) I have mixed feelings about this property, maybe if the description was more accurate I'd have had a better experience there. Would I recommend it? Maybe if you're traveling alone, don't mind sharing an apartment, and not gonna cook while there. Would I stay there again? Also not sure, there's definitely better options nearby for the same price. Full 1 bedroom apartments for example.
