    The room was tidy with bathroom. Got a fantastic breakfast included. Location: the hotel was close to the city center or ferry port to Santo Antao, beach and town centre and the port. The staff were really kind and nice, thanks to them everything was good...

    Great value for money and the room was fantastic! The location was safe and quiet, and the staff were friendly and helpful.

    Breakfast delights, but more options would make it even better.

    During my trip to Mindelo, I had the chance to stay at Basic hotel, and although I only stayed there for transit purposes, I found two features that were particularly beneficial. the hotel's location proved to be incredibly convenient, as it is situated just 10 km from the nearest airport. This proximity made it effortless for me to reach the hotel after a long journey, ensuring a seamless transition to my next destination. the accommodation itself was perfectly suited for a short stay, providing all the necessary amenities and a comfortable environment to relax before continuing my travels.

    There was one minor setback that I encountered during my stay at Basic. While the first time I dined at the hotel, the breakfast surpassed my expectations, offering a wide variety of options such as fried eggs, yogurt, and more.

    Parking was great, I could park my fancy car without worrying about it getting scratched. The natural park was only 12 km away, perfect for a posh lady like me to go on a glamorous nature walk.

    Oh, the nearest airport was only Cesària Evora Airport, who needs an airport with a proper name anyway?

    The hotel is conveniently located near the beach, making it a great spot for leisurely walks and enjoying the ocean breeze. Additionally, it is situated in a good neighborhood, ensuring a safe and pleasant stay. The rooms are spacious and clean, with amenities like a small fridge and daily cleaning service, providing a comfortable and enjoyable experience.

    The breakfast options can be inconsistent, as mentioned by some guests, with certain items missing on certain days.

    I had a lovely stay at a budget-friendly hotel in Mindelo. The location was convenient, just a short walk to the beach and city center. The staff was friendly and always ready to assist. The breakfast, although simple, was tasty and satisfying with toast, jam, a pear, and a pancake with ham/cheese. The WiFi was a bit slow at times, but it did the job. I highly recommend this hotel for those looking for a good and cheap option for a short stopover.

    The room was clean and tidy upon arrival, which was a great start. The hotel staff were friendly and helpful, which made the check-in process smooth. The location of the hotel was convenient as it was close to the beach and city center, allowing easy access to popular attractions.

    The breakfast options were limited and not very satisfying. The WiFi was slow and kept disconnecting, making it difficult to stay connected.

    Our stay was mind-blowing at this super hotel! We had the whole apartment for ourselves, complete with a jaw-dropping living room, cozy sleeping room, and a fully equipped kitchen. The staff were incredibly accommodating, allowing us to store our luggage while we explored another island. The breakfast, served in the fantastic outdoor dining area, was delicious and varied. The room was clean and comfortable, featuring a flat-screen TV and all the necessary cookware and kitchen utensils. We were thrilled with the convenient location near the breathtaking Laginha beach. Plus, the hotel offers free Wi-Fi, laundry facilities, and non-smoking rooms. Highly recommended for a fantastic stay in this city!
