What an adorable and comfortable place! I felt safe as a solo female traveler. They were awesome in accommodating breakfast for me to a vegan, gluten-free diet. It's super clean and walkable to a lot of places. My favorite part is Zulema - the hotel dog!

Please exercise some patience, as there are non-English speaking staff but they will try to help you. The rooms are really small. My TV didn't work and as a solo traveler, that was a bit disappointing and the staff couldn't fix it. In addition, I couldn't control the air conditioner with the remote and it's powered by inserting the door entry card into a slot by the front door. Which means, I had to get up throughout the night to turn off the A/C. This area was incredibly noisy during my visit and you must be careful at night. The staff was very nice and I loved the sweet dog! Breakfast was simple. Overall, the price per night matched my experience.

Boa estadia, mas precisam melhorar alguns pontos.

A equipe é muito atenciosa e sempre disposta para ajudar no que for preciso. A pousada fica num ponto ótimo da cidade e o café da manhã estava muito bom. Porém, em termo de estrutura, achei que deixou a desejar bastante. O quarto que fiquei estava com pequenas rachaduras no teto, pintura parecia velha (com muitas machas) e o quarto, no geral, estava com aspecto de mal-conservado. Por tudo que vi no site, esperava mais da pousada.

Pousada excelente, mas faltam pequenos detalhes

Atendimento muito gentil, café da manhã fantástico; localização perfeita. Mas há necessidade de maior atenção com alguns detalhes, como o ventilador de teto estar por um fio, caindo (não usei; e tinha um split excelente) e a porta do armário estava solta. Voltaria a me hospedar, mas seria importante que mantivessem maior cuidado. Por fim, senti falta de uma mesinha no quarto...

Melhor impossível - Recomendo

Fiquei MUITO feliz em ter me hospedado na Estrela do Mar. Sem dúvidas a pousada mais bem localizada de Salvador - á pouquíssimos metros do Farol. Além disso, a Estrela cumpre com tudo que promete: conforto, limpeza, segurança, bom atendimento e recepção 24h. O café da manhã é servido, mas é farto. Enfim, sempre que voltar em Salvador, me hospedarei nessa mesma pousada.
