Parents or a legal guardian travelling with children under 18 years must present the child's birth certificate and an identity card with photo (for example, a passport) at check-in. For international travels to Brazil, if only one of the parents is travelling with the child, she/he must present – in addition to the child's certificate of birth and identity card with photo – a letter authorising the trip signed by the other parent with a notarial certification of signature. In the event that the parents or the legal guardian, as applicable, cannot or are unwilling to give this authorisation, a judicial authorisation is required. People who intend to travel to Brazil with children must consult with the Brazilian consulate before travelling for more information.

I liked the staff and the room was nice. In a good location, with parking. The breakfast was good too. You get some good exercise walking up the hill to the hotel.. ;)

All in all ok
La posada esta ubicada arriba del morro, y hay que atravezar una subida muy empinada para llegar. Es realmente el mayor problema que tiene esta posada. Teniamos auto alquilado, pero no cualquier auto sube semejante pendiente. Los taxis y deliverys te dejan en la base porque no quieren subir. Sinceramente, cuando llegamos y vi esta ubicacion me queria cambiar a cualquier otra posada y me preguntaba como lei esta situacion en los comentarios antes de contratar!
Gostei muito da estadia. Assim que entrei no quarto identifiquei um problema no banheiro, comuniquei ao responsável e tudo foi resolvido com muita praticidade. A equipe foi muito especial. Recomendo.

Ficamos em um bom quarto, porém o banheiro estava fedendo xixi.
A equipe bacana.
O que mais incomodou foi os próprios hóspedes com bateção de porta e a noite gritando atrapalhando nosso descanso.
Bom café da manhã, com bastante variedades de frutas, pães, queijos.
Funcionários atenciosos, quarto limpo, senti falta da ducha higiênica no banheiro. Estacionamento bom.
A pousada não tem uma localização ruim porém meu quarto era minúsculo,só tinha uma cama de casal pra eu,meu marido e minha filha,frigobar ficava desligando estragando os danones da minha filha,sauna em manutenção sem previsão de arrumar,troca de lençóis só a cada 3 dias e só tinha 1 cobertor disponível.
A pousada tem uma estrutura muito boa, com condições de excelência porém, peca em detalhes, no quarto em que fiquei, o frigobar estava ruim, com a base apodrecida de ferrugem e não fechava, tive que colocar peso em meu cooler para escorar a porta para manter fechada; a água do chuveiro e pia com forte cheiro de mofo, as toalhas cedidas já estavam velhas soltando felpos, a cama de possuía um dos pés apoiados por pedaço de madeira. De positivo, o quarto era amplo, com boa ventilação, o café da manhã era caprichado, a pousada é organizada, com área de lazer. No geral foi bom!
Pousada bem cuidada, local silencioso e com ima bela vista.C olaboradores simpáticos, café da manhã padrão, mas tudo sempre muito fresco.
O Sr. Janio(prop) foi muito solicito ao disponibilizar uma area para que guardasse minhas bikes com segurança
Foi bom só a cama que não gostei o colchão era de mola fique com meu corpo todo doído ah o travesseiro é muito baixo, tirando isso a pousada é ótima

Razoável
Apesar do excelente e atencioso atendimento das pessoas, a hospedagem no geral foi razoável, principalmente a falta de conforto da cama e dos travesseiros velhos e morfados.
Colchao afundava muito no meio, chuveiro estragado do funcionava frio, portas finas e que balançam a noite toda com vento. Tomadas não funcionam… nak havia mesa de canto, tinha que colocar celular e água do lado da cama no chão… Café da manhã simples mas bem feito e senhoras educadas…
