4/10 Fair

Customer service is terrible. Paid for dinner at the hotel and could not get service. 5 tables in the entire restaurant, 3-4 servers working , a bus boy and a bartender. Had to walk around and find a server to get drinks. This is a really low end buffet and even with it being a buffet the people were more worried about being on their phones and talking among themselves. Tried to change currency at the dsk and they charged a really high fee. It was about 12%. Room was clean but not very nice. We stayed at 3 Vila Gale hotels on this trip and they all charged differently, one added a 10% addition “service fee” at checkout. They said it was to recoup the 10% Expedia charged them for making the booking. Avoid Vile Gale properties!

Incrível o lugar, principalmente os funcionários da recepção são excelentes, porém infelizmente no café houve demora pra fazer as reposições e desorganização, diferente de outros Vilas Gale. Mesmo assim sou fã dessa rede de hotéis.

Sou um hóspede frequente do Vila Gale Ondina, Salvador-BA. O hotel precisa de uma reforma. Quartos velhos, banheiro com descarga quebrada, pia do banheiro entupida… Os funcionários, não são como antes, estão despreparados, com cara fechada. Confesso que fiquei surpreso, pois sempre me hospedo e nunca tive esses problemas.

Eu simplesmente amei o hotel!! Funcionários muitos educados, hotel limpo, bonito! Café da manhã perfeito! Com certeza voltarei! Chegamos cedo no hotel, o funcionário que nos atendeu logo perguntou se queríamos deixar as malas guardadas até o horário do check in. Liberou a piscina para usarmos, o café da manhã! Nossa, me surpreendi com a hospitalidade deles! Em breve queremos retornar
