Best rooms

Request a room on the 3rd floor (if available) facing the garden or side alley, away from the street. The top floor reduces footfall noise from the staircase and offers a sliver of the Serra da Capivara landscape from the west windows.

Request rooms on the 3rd or 4th floor facing the rear courtyard. These are high enough to avoid street-level noise and benefit from the building's concrete structure for better sound insulation.

Rooms to avoid

Avoid ground-floor rooms near the reception or breakfast area — noise from early check-ins and clattering cutlery starts around 6 AM. Also skip any room directly above the small bar at the back, which can have music until 10 PM on weekends.

Avoid rooms on the 1st and 2nd floors facing the main street. Street-level traffic in Picos can be audible, and lower floors pick up pedestrian and vehicle noise more distinctly. Also skip rooms directly beside the lift shaft on any floor.

Wi-Fi

Free for all guests, single SSID with password given at check-in; max 15 Mbps, stable for email/social media but not for HD video streaming. No paid upgrade tier

Free basic WiFi in all rooms and lobby, speed sufficient for browsing and email; no login constraints

Parking

Unmarked on‑street parking only – no dedicated hotel parking; nearest public car park is Estacionamento Central (Rua Getúlio Vargas, 3 blocks away), BRL 8 night (18:00–08:00); no EV charging

No on-site parking; nearest public car park is Estacionamento Central (Rua Coelho Rodrigues, 150) at BRL 15 per night, no EV charging
