Pousada Bahia Pelô

The first guy at reception was very nice and welcoming, best part of the experience.

To start we booked a room with a 'spa' bath/jacuzzi tub, the moment we turned on the jets sewage water spewed from the jets and filled the entire room with the smell. The handle to the bath tub was also broken to begin with. There were an insane number of ants in the room, which we discovered because we opened a coke from the mini bar and had it on the nightstand and within 20 minutes it was crawling with ants, which at that point never fully left (even by the morning). The source was behind the dresser/wardrobe that had the minibar- we have no idea what could have been behind it to generate that many ants. We killed at least 100 if not more. The bidet hose was broken and caused the entire floor to be covered in water. Lastly, the air conditioner was weak and ill placed causing it to cool the ceiling more than the room. The breakfast was also quite lackluster, with limited options of fruit and very basic flavored tapioca. Not to mention that there aren't enough tables for all the guests, so several people (us included) had to wait until others finished theirs. Wouldn't recommend staying there, there's way better (and cheaper!) options in Salvador.
