Bom, mas confuso
Foi tudo ótimo. Mas realmente foi confuso reservar o palma e ter que se deslocar com mala pesada pro outro lado da rua pra ficar no outro hostel que não é o palma. Deveriam separar as reservas e as ofertas.

A pretty hostel in an excellent location!
The hostel is very cozy and niely decorated. Beautiful shared spaces with nice colours. Friendly staff. We got a huge room despite travelling as a couple. The bed was enormous...:D The location was excellent. Not noisy but 3 minute walk and you're right in the middle of weekend festivities in the old town. A nice plus was that you could fill your water bottles in the kitchen. We strongly recommend this hostel!

Boa localização no centro histórico. Um casarão antigo e bem conservado. Muito bonito e bem decorado. Quarto imenso com banheiro novo é muito limpo. Infelizmente a tv não funcionou. Os funcionários fizeram varias tentativas. Porém em vão.

Eine sehr gute Lage am Rande der Altstadt, wo die meisten Sehenswürdigkeiten zu Fuß problemlos zu erreichen sind. Und trotzdem ist es ruhig, insbesondere nachts. Die Mitarbeiter sind sehr freundlich und aufmerksam und helfen auch bei Verständigungsproblemen. Die gesamte Hostelanlage ist wunderschön mit alten Möbeln dekoriert. Einziger Minuspunkt: Das Zimmer ist für mein Empfinden zu stark gekühlt, die Klimaanlage ist nicht einfach zu regulieren. Der kalte Luftzug geht direkt auf das Kopfteil des Bettes, so daß es da ungemütlich wird. Da hilft nur, sich verkehrt ins Bett zu legen.

Para um Hostel, é uma excelente opção na relação benefício/custo. Peca pelas comodidades e amenities oferecidos, além do altíssimo valor de uma água ou uma cerveja, sem opção de pagar junto com a conta no checkout.

Casarão histórico de 200 anos
As acomodações são simples, mas é limpo, as camas são confortáveis, o prédio é um casarão antigo de 200 anos, é um ambiente bastante agradável. O café da manhã também é muito bom. A localização é boa para quem quer conhecer o centro histórico de São Luís, que vem sendo revitalizado e na área do Hotel é relativamente seguro. Pelo preço é uma excelente relação custo-benefício.

Um pouco decepcionante
A decoração é muito bonita, mas a limpeza deixou um pouco a desejar. Apesar da localização ser boa, o centro histórico não está bem preservado.

Recomendo o Palma Hostel.
Gostei muito do Palma Hostel. Na verdade é um hotel com quartos privativos. Boa localização para quem pretende passar mais tempo na região do centro histórico. Fica na Rua do Giz. Não pára carros na porta, mas se consegue descer a poucos metros, uns 50 metros mais ou menos. Cheguei de madrugada, então tive um pouco de preocupação relação a isso. Mas o local é aparentemente seguro. Atendimento excelente e atencioso, todos estão de parabéns. Deixo um abraço especial para o Chagas e Leonardo, excelentes profissionais. O Chagas é muito bom de papo, um kra é de uma energia muito boa. Quarto e banheiro amplos o suficiente para uma boa estadia. Banheiro com chuveiro elétrico. Possui bastantes escadas, é um casarão antigo, rustico, muito bonito e bem decorado. Se o hóspede tiver alguma dificuldade de locomoção, recomendo se informar antes sobre a possibilidade de algum quarto mais acessível. O café da manhã é bom, dentro da média dos demais hotéis. Apenas uma observação em relação ao ar condicionado do quarto 33, estava em 17 graus e não tinha como regular a temperatura e nem desligar, havia algum problema com o equipamento, já que não foi possível usar o controle remoto, informei na recepção, mas não foi possível resolver. Também em relação às paredes do quarto, estavam bastante sujas. Observar um pouco a limpeza. No mais recomendo e voltarei.

Excelente localização
acomodação em prédio histórico, no centro da cidade, perto dos principais pontos de interesse da São Luís. Atendimento do Chagas tb é diferenciado. Se a reserva for para pessoas com dificuldade de locomoção, averiguar se o quarto fica no térreo. Hospedagem tem muitas escadas e idosos podem ter dificuldade. Café da manhã básico.

Otima localização, casarão histórico, porém mal conservado e higiene precária. Teia de aranha, roupa de cama e banho encardidas, mal cheiro no banheiro.

A éviter
Cet hôtel a été la déception de tout notre séjour au Brésil. Tout d’abord les chambres avaient déjà été payées sur hotel.com, mais il a fallu insister 3 fois pour que le réceptionniste arrive enfin à retrouver notre paiement, voulant nous faire repayer. Les chambres sont vieilles, salles, avec nombre de choses cassées ou dysfonctionnantes. Le minibar à disposition dans la chambre, vide (ce n’est pas le souci) vous envoie une odeur pestilentielle si jamais vous essayez de l’ouvrir. Climatisation cassée (en fait elle fonctionne, mais vous ne pouvez ni la régler, ni la modifier, ce qui fait que nous avons déplacé le lit de mon fils qui était dessous). Petit déjeuner sans intérêt. Enfin un bon bruit (sans doute la préparation du petit déjeuner, mais je ne comprends pas trop ce qu’il y avait à préparer au vu du résultat) vous réveille à 6h00 du matin, vous permettant d’être sûr de ne pas traîner trop longtemps dans cet endroit.

Excelente custo-benefício!
O casarão é antigo (possui mais de dois séculos) e tem alguns problemas de manutenção naturais do tempo, mas as instalações são razoáveis e a localização é perfeita: no coração do Centro Histórico. O café da manhã é bem simples, mas para um hostel esse aspecto já é, em verdade, um diferencial.
