Vila Recife Residencial

Basic hotel. Get what you pay for. Staff friendly. Room was clean and the air-conditioning was brilliant. Fantastic location. Right in old town. Noisy at night. Would recommend for a budget location

My experience in Vila Recife was very bad. On the first day of my stay the room was not clean, did not change the bathroom towels, as we returned from the beach, we needed towels to take a bath, it took 1 hour to be delivered. The breakfast was terrible, the juices should be a dilution of some powder, the mixed egg is horrible (watery), asked to fry an egg, the responsible refused to make. I do not recommend!

Location was fantastic be prepared to climb hills & steps ground is quite uneven .close to the noisy square but you can't hear it from hotel.20 mins from lovely marina area , lots of great restaurants off the cobble street & close to the beach could beat location tbh Atmosphere in hotel was very relaxing .Staff are so nice & friendly the reception staff were very helpful & dining & bar staff the same ,cleaning staff so pleasant they cleaned rooms every day . the place was spotless .Lovely quiet place it's old town so you will not & don't expect fancy modern buildings this one has lovely old architecture could do with updating. Has a pool which is small clean wouldn't suit families & the shade covers it in afternoon but they have two roof terraces where the views are awesome & there's always a little breeze . The only problem there's no refreshments or toilets up there & the sun loungers could be replaced a few dodgey ones. Rooms are small clean & adequate bathroom is tiny but good pressure from shower you need to bring round plug adapters & hair dryers you can get a kettle & iron from reception no problem . No tea ,coffee , sugar milk supplied but supermarket just across the road & there is a fridge .we had asked for pool view which we got but it was ground level every time we opened curtains someone was looking in & it was noisy we asked to be moved they did no problem . If I was to stay again I'd ask for 4/5 floor so easy access to terrace area & toilet in room . Value was ok for time of year & late booking. Breakfast was the usual cooked sausage bacon scrambled or boiled eggs ( didn't have) plenty of cheese ham breads pancakes sweet stuff yogurt & fruit . Oranges melon pineapple apples bananas & juices .
