Guest reviews for Zena Star
"Nice apartment, nice to have access to a kitchen. Helpful owner."
"The WiFi did not work at all. I couldn’t even get a signal unless I was outside on the street. I also wish more information about check-in had been provided before I arrived because I didn’t know how to enter the building and had to ask another resident to call the owner to let me in."
"Friendly proprietor. Value for money. Decent shower. Fridge. Lots of power sockets. Availability at short notice - I'd inadvertently booked a place in Tarrafal on a completely different island."
"Very little. I'd have preferred a double bed, although I literally booked the place an hour before arrival, so, cannot complain at all."
"Central position, really nice and big apartament. The view is also super nice. Two bathrooms and 2 rooms, it’s not clear at the beggining that you have to go from the balcony to go from the living room to the rooms. The owner is Italian."
"The WiFi doesn’t work good and doesn’t reach all the house."
"Amazing roof terrasse! Paolo was great, the flat is lovely and spacious, great view and perfect location"
"Aucun."
"The room or rooms ( there was one room divided into two parts, one was a kitchen and dining room) were really spacious, the bed was comfortable, I had hot water, and a view from the balcony overlooking part of Tarrafal and the mountains. The place was quiet, so I could relax and chill out. At night, I could observe local nightlife here; it was nice and so different from what I have at home. Plus, I saw many cats running and fighting, which, as a cat lover, I didn't mind. If I come here again, I will definitely stay in Zena Star."

"Aucun."
"Nice studio with a balcony. Well made with bench seats and kitchen cupboards. Liked the street vibe and handy to have access to WiFi."
"Twin beds rather than a double."
"Jolie vue sur la baie, proximité des commerces, plage. Calme"
"Aucun."

"Gostei de tudo, especialmente a Morabeza que é um bem característico da Brava, aquilo que nenhum dinheiro pode comprar."
Adão Hotel POUSADA Brava
"We liked Nova Sintra. It is very charming particularly the central place. We liked the path to Fuja da Agua, a very beautiful and particular hike for many reasons. The Guesthouse itself was good and Eurico is nice and helpful. The breakfast is copious."

"Really clean and comfortable place to stay. Lovely plant filled courtyard. Really helpful host - helped me with getting a ferry ticket. On the edge of town (but just a few minutes walk into town) so lovely and quiet."
