A pequena aconchegante
A pousada é pequena mas aconchegante e a localização é muito boa. O estabelecimento não conta com um profissional permanentemente disponível para atendimento aos hóspedes mas o proprietário tenta compensar essa questão com comunicação via WhatsApp, mostrando-se atencioso e acessível.
