Tivemos uma experiência simplesmente maravilhosa na pousada! O chalé em que ficamos, chamado “Chalé da Paineira”, foi encantador: super aconchegante, limpo, bem equipado e com uma vista que transmite paz. Desde a nossa chegada, fomos muito bem recebidos pela equipe, sempre atenciosa e gentil. Sentimos um carinho especial em cada detalhe, o que tornou tudo ainda mais memorável. Estávamos comemorando nosso aniversário de casamento e não poderíamos ter escolhido lugar melhor! A atmosfera, o conforto e o cuidado com os hóspedes fizeram toda a diferença. Ficamos realmente impressionados com a qualidade e com o cuidado em proporcionar uma estadia tão especial. Sem palavras, foi tudo perfeito. Recomendamos de olhos fechados e, com certeza, voltaremos! Obrigado por terem feito parte de um momento tão importante para nós.

Fomos muito bem recebidos pela Marciae novamente nos encantamos quando conhecemos as instalações: tudo impecavelmente limpo e de muito bom gosto. Também, o Café da manhã é muito bom (teve entre outras delícias, um bolo de maracujá que eu amei). Um lugar encantador, tudo saiu acima do esperado.

Difícil acesso e outras coisas mais…

Os dois quartos ficam dentro da casa da proprietária, onde ela residiu com seu companheiro e seu cachorro no tempo em que estive lá. E, pela minha experiência, percebi que não oferecem privacidade alguma, por estarem dentro da casa da proprietária. Ouve-se tudo que está sendo falado ao lado, assim como se ouve a todo momento o sobe e desce da escada pro segundo andar da casa pelo cachorro e moradores da casa. Desde o início, me senti uma visita na casa de um estranho. Não há recepção, o check in é feito na sala da casa sentado no sofá. Antes da chegada, recebi uma mensagem da proprietária se eu me incomodaria se o hóspede do quarto ao lado levasse um cachorro. Não me opus e o cachorro não foi, mas achei uma deselegância ser submetido a tal consulta, uma vez que os quartos são juntos. Outros detalhes: no primeiro dia de café da manhã, fui o primeiro a chegar e não pude sentar na mesa que escolhi, sendo que são todas as mesas iguais e têm o mesmo tamanho(a proprietária me pediu pra escolher outra mesa); depois de dois dias, perguntamos se era possível a troca de toalhas, pois o local é muito frio e mesmo com aquecedor de toalhas elas não secam totalmente(acabei levando um sermão da proprietária). Mas, não precisei das toalhas, pois, por opção própria, adiantei o check out em um dia. E, mesmo sem em nenhum momento pedir reembolso, ouvi que ela não poderia fazer nada em relação a essa diária. Mais uma vez não entendi. Enfim, experiência desagradável e anfitriã deselegante.
