Gemeos Barcultural & Pousada — Hotel in Região Geográfica Imediata de Valença

the best thing going for this place is its friendly owner, the proximity to the MUD beach and beach front location. the problem is that it is very far from Morro town. and all the way at the END of the beach so you have to lug your bag from the pier about 30mins to this place (the walkway ends about 5+mins even before you arrive. Arriving at nighttime is horrible. no lights to know where you are going..you are just walking in the dark in the sand.:(||the place itself is average. run down, needs repair. Owner bundles all backpackers in the same room and just keeps squishing in beds as more people arrive. seems unorganized. 1 broken, noisy & dangerous fan without protective grill for 6 people was not fun. the backyard is a total mess. the shared bathroom in another area had no shelves or mirrors, it was unkept & not always functioning as was the hot water. :(||if you want to be away from everything with few people around, it's Great! If you like a little actions, best to be in Morro. Staying here one had to go by ferry schedule and couldn't stay out late or you couldn't get back(ferries stop)||there were a few family rooms that looked better. Breakfast was ok, Mosquito nets needed & mostly provided. Wifi was off & on. backpacker's room didn't receive it, so that...

If you are looking for a relaxing place far from the craziness of Morro, this is your place! It is a nice, rustic hostel, managed by a wonderful lady called Cristina. She makes you feel like home! The Posada is in a island called GAMBOA. You get to the Pousada by boat from Morro de São Paulo, a few minutes trip that costs around 3 or 5 reais. When the tide is low, you can walk to Morro, about 10-15 min walk. Next to the posada you have the Argila Beach where you can use the natural sand to exfoliate your face and body, very nice! There is also a nice little town in Gamboa where you can walk to buy groceries, have something to eat, etc and avoid the boat trip to Morro. Breakfast is very good and although it is supposed to last till 10.30... Cristina will arrange it for you even a few hours later. Important: Don't forget insect repellent and spray to prepare the room for the night!||Thank you Cristina for taking so well of all of us, we really felt...

Mal atendimento, indicando discriminação racial e pouco caso com pedido de cliente. Pedi uma comida vegana por indicação de Uma pousada de propriedade de um senhor chamado Luca. Quando falei sobre comida vegana, o cozinheiro e o atendente me atenderam com desdém, respondendo que bao trabalham com comida vegana, mas com a comida vegetariana. Perguntei o que poderia servir comida vegetariana. Eles me indicaram algumas opções. Aceitei e pedi uma mesa para sentar com outras 3 pessoas. Eles me disseram que bao havia nenhum lugar disponível no local. Por isso fui procurar na barraca ao lado, onde mesmo não disponibilizar pratos vegetarianos, eles poderiam fazer pratos vegetarianos de imediato. Me serviram salada, prato não disponível na barraca Gêmeos. Fomos muito bem atendidos na barraca ao lado, nota 10, e quando terminamos de almocar, percebi que uma mesa grande com banco e cadeiras suficientes serviam apenas para guardar moxilas e bolsas de um grupo que almoçou ao lado. Por isso, resolvi tomar satisfação das pessoas que bao quiseram me atender na barraca Gêmeos. Perguntei por que não me atenderam, já que havia lugares mais do que suficientes para nos atenderem, uma vez que a mesa grande só serviu para guardar bolsas e mochilas. Me responderam com uma gargalhada, demonstrando pouco caso com a minha reclamação. Daí só pude entender que estávamos sendo discriminados. Como tenho pele negra, só poderia pressupor que se tratava de racismo. Deram uma gargalhada, abanando as mãos, como se eu tivesse falando besteira. Daí eu falei mais alto para chamar atenção de outras pessoas dizendo que estava sendo discriminado como um ato de racismo. Trocamos alguns desaforos, e saí dizendo que postaria nas redes sociais esse tipo de discriminação. Eles me disseram que eu podia fazer o que bem entender,pois o problema...
