Studio do Carmo Boutique Hotel

Great location, friendly and helpful staff, spacious room

Nothing to complain

Very nice colonial style hotel in a safe area, all of the staff was friendly and helpful. The breakfast was prepared in a lovely way, it even included local food (and cake). They also offer transfer to other places (like Morro de Sao Paulo) with good travel companies at no additional charge.

Pelourinho is the hearth of Salvador and here is located studio do Carmo a very good pousada in a typical local building; the room was very clean and spacious with very nice colonial style furnitures and beautiful paintings from local artist exposed.  Also Massimo the owner and his staff are very kind and professional Enjoy Also the local typical breakfast served directly in the room. Recommended if you want to live a real Salvador de Bahia experience.

Location excellent for seeing old Salvador. Breakfast excellent. Staff very helpful. Our room for four was very comfortable. Guests must be prepared to climb steep and narrow stairs. The posada is directly across the street from steps leading to a church. The posada windows don't have glass, only wood shutters. The steps are a popular and lively meeting place for young people at night, and there's a night club next to the stairs halfway up. The young people and club generate a good deal of noise until about 11 PM, which comes in clearly thru the Posada windows. Fortunately, it didn't interfere with our family sleeping schedule. The shower could have been scrubbed a bit more to remove mold.
