スウィート ゲスト ハウス

Sweet Guesthouse on first impression looks nice. But for us it wasn’t so nice! The receptionist spoke very poor English (she would have thought it was an imperative to have some knowledge of the language when tourism is the main focus?). The room was clean but beds were soft and there was mould in the showers! It was also noisy with little sound proofing. We booked a taxi to a local restaurant in the evening. There are NO restaurants close by and they don’t serve food apart from breakfast. There was no drinking water in our rooms and in fact there was no water in the guesthouse!! I had to walk 200 metres to get water!!! The taxi (the one the guesthouse uses) charged us $20 each way ($5 per person) which I thought was outrageous for a five minute ride. The next morning, talking to someone who did speak English, I discovered that we had been charged at least double. The receptionist didn’t respond!!!

We stayed the last 3 days of our trip to São Tomé at Sweet Guesthouse and we were impressed by this place. It is located about a 15 minute walk to the center of São Tomé City, it's cozy and very clean. Our room had a/c, private bathroom and hot water. We also had breakfast here - with good coffee, bread, fruits, egs and excellent juice. It took us a while to find out how to get to city center but once we learnt the way it took us less than 15 minutes to reach downtown. On the last day of our stay we left our luggage by the reception after check-out (which is 12:00) and went out to enjoy our last moments in STP. Then we came back to the Guesthouse changed and took for the airport - we were allowed to use the bathroom even though we had already check-out. I would recommend this place if you want to stay close to the city center of São Tomé City.

Lugar calmo, com excelente acolhimento. Tem tudo o que é necessário para uma estadia serena. Bem cuidado, limpo, harmonioso. Tem uma fábrica de chocolate, o chocolate é delicioso. Bem localizado! Recomendo!!!

Ottima soluzione posizionata nel quartiere prossimo al centro (circa 1 km) che si raggiunge a piedi in pochi minuti. A 10 minuti di taxi dall'aeroporto. Molto pulito e moderno, con molte camere di nuova costruzione, parti comuni godibili e uso cucina. Le camere doppie in generale non hanno TV e frigo ma AC e doccia calda, tutto nuovo, pulito e ben funzionante. Servizio efficiente e gentilissimo. Wifi poco funzionante in camera, ma bene nelle parti comuni e reception. La camera doppia con bagno varia da 55 a 73 € + tasse di soggiorno (3,10 € a testa), a seconda dei periodi inclusa ricca colazione, (uova, frutta, cereali, dolci, the e caffè, succo fresco). Servizio da e per l'aeroporto a 14 €, decisamente caro. Nell'hotel è presente una cioccolateria e molti artisti locali espongono le loro opere in giro per le parti comuni. Mi sembra un ottima soluzione come base per visitare l'isola.
