Guesthouse Malagueta Inn I & II

The Malaguetta Inn is very conveniently located in the Polana Cimento A district and all of the city's attractions can be easily reached from there either on foot or by taking a short taxi ride. The entrance is hidden next to a bar on a fairly busy street corner. The area is considered safe, there are lots of vendors on the square in front of the Inn, but they are not at all pushy. The few rooms in the Inn (why there are I and II is not clear to us) are on the first floor in a hallway. The furnishings are very imaginative, lovingly made (is flower power the right term), the rooms are simple but functional, have A/C, mosquito nets, a desk, an open shelf (no closet) and good lighting. In our case the toilet/shower was outside the room and actually only intended for us, now and then another roommate was there too. The location is in a courtyard between high-rise buildings, so there is no view, but also little noise (except when there is a loud party on the terrace next door on the weekend). The price-performance ratio is absolutely right, the owners are very friendly and accommodating.
