The hotel looks unassuming from the outside. It has a nice courtyard, small pool and bar with a small breakfast room. There didn't seem to any one else in the rooms. Ours had two beds, a double and a kids bed which took up a lot of space which we used to set our things. The air conditioning could only be felt in one side of room with a small ceiling fan, unfortunately not the side with the larger bed. The bathroom was modest with a window for ventilation, but opened only to another part of the room. The main doors to the room were wooden slated doors which allowed the hall light in, followed by glass doors which kept the cool air in. They provide you with bath towels a single hand towel and two tiny rough bars of soap, no shampoo, no lotion, no shower cap or any other extras. The bathroom was tight with very little counter space and a facet that easily dripped water over the edge. There are plenty of mosquitos so bring bug spray. The water heater isn't very strong, so expect a luke warm shower at best. They're anticipating it to always be warm outside, so a cool shower won't feel too shocking. They never came to clean the room or offer new towels so after three days, the floors got a little dirty and the garbage was overflowing. Breakfast is in a large common area with a selection of breads, cakes, some cereal, cheese and ham slices, a few fresh fruit slices and juices (unsweetened). They had a coffee carafe (not always full) and tea bags but no hot water. It was minimal selection but not bad. There was weak wifi in the lobby (not in room) and slow but kind service at the front desk. Really this place wasn't too bad but extremely overpriced for the bare minimum they provided. Don't bother coming on a holiday period because the increased prices aren't worth it. That being said we didn't find that much other offerings in Paraty itself as far as hotels. Staying in centro historical is quite expensive. read more
