The hotel is located in a dead alley of Rio Vermelho with access on both sides to small but nice beaches. Strategically excellent location to reach the city commercial centers along the PARALLELA, the old historical center Pelourinho (once beautifully restaurated, now back to old scruffy 3rd world level, very disappointing*) the airport and the beaches along the coast.
On walking distance one can reach some 10 - 15 restaurants and bars of all types and levels. Very pleasant if you want to go for a quick churasco, "petisco" or a cairpirinha (excellent location in 300m distance) right after a hard working day or after a "exhausting" day on the beach.
If I have to go to Salvador, I´ll go to that place!
* I personally know Salvador since 1990, before the big reconstruction. In the years of 95 - 2000 one could see and feel a vital spirit of renovation and pride in the old historical center. This seems to be blown away. Obviously theymanaged the turn-around .... downwards, back to old times, real 3rd world. It´s so sad to watch this.
