This place is absolutely gorgeous! The decor is a midcentury dream. It was great to have access to an elevator as well. I felt very safe and at home as a solo female traveller. I also loved the location-- you can walk down to the water and such, but because that is so touristy, it was nice to be higher up in town. I did a few day trips and being so close to the Sao Bento Station was a huge plus!! Also, you are near some really great places to eat very close (esp. Ostras & Coisas Restaurante for seafood!). Highly recommend.
