It’s a perfect boutique hotel at the edge of Peroulinho. The staff was very friendly and ready to help. A nice breakfast with lots of choices in the morning and a cute bar in the lobby. It’s a bit uncomfortable walking late at night but totally walkable throughout the day. There is a noise from bars and other businesses around. Close to restaurants, museums, and attractions and easy to get around in Uber.

Bahiacafe is ideally located at the entrance to the historic sector of Salvador, and at affordable taxi rides from beaches etc. Warm and friendly staff assist with organising excursions. Interesting breakfast buffet but no other in house dining, ( but why bother with so
many alternatives within walking distance?). The Caipirinha cocktails in the evening were great. Overall, a nice alternative-but-modern vibe at reasonable prices.

Nice and well located hotel, right in the center of Salvador. Staff really friendly and helpful, giving advices and booking activities. The property is an old house transformed into a hotel so it looks a bit old but it's fine.
It's a good option but I wouldn't classify it as a 'boutique' hotel since it lacks a few commodities, for example, the rooms are too small and don't have a wardrobe to hang your clothes properly, the bath is really small and the shower doesn't have a shelf to put your toiletries while you shower.
But in general I would definitely recommend it.

Boa localização, mas tenha cautela
Quarto bom. Já esperava um prédio antigo por estar no centro histórico.
O café da manhã é muito fraco e sem opções.
Precisa tomar cuidado com a segurança na região. Só andar onde tem policiamento.
A localização é boa para quem vai pegar o barco para Morro de São Paulo, mas cuidado com os golpes.
