Pousada Santa Rita

“Near by USP”

It's a comfortable inn near by University of São Paulo. They serve a very good breakfast. The installation is good, too. If you like beer, there is a small beer industry around 500 meters. Very tasty!

“Good choice for international business traveler”

This 55-room, 2-story hotel (more structured like a US motel), is a favorite among Americans. It is located on Avenue du Café about ½ mile from entrance of University of Sau Paulo Ribierao Preto campus. The hotel staff has varied English language abilities, and very accommodating to international travelers (e.g., they provided me with electrical adapters, converters, and a hair dryer). The gated facility is arranged in a horseshoe around a central parking lot, pool, and dining facility. Breakfast is served daily, 7:30-10:30, and includes a large assortment of juices, savory and sweet breads, eggs, sausage, sandwich, cakes, fresh fruits, yogurt, coffee, and tea. Guest rooms are bed-bath suites, with granite floors and compact fridge; no lack of hot water. Electrical is 110V with type N connectors; cable TV in each room, CNN International news available in English (channel 200); free WiFi service in guest rooms and common areas. No smoke detectors, but each room opens directly to the courtyard. There are some minor noise issues from guest vehicles arriving and departing from the central parking area, somewhat distant but persistent barking dogs and roosters, and chairs moving on the floors (simple plastic gliders would easily solve this). Windows are not screened; guest rooms have individually controlled a/c, and deadbolt locks. Clean, no bugs or creepy crawlers. Not a luxury hotel, but very practical for business travel.

“Good option in Ribeirão Preto”

I've been there twice, and would gladly return. The rooms are comfortable and clean, well maintained (even though I saw a photo of a not-so-new toilet seat, the two rooms I stayed at were perfect). The breakfast is delicious and the reception staff was ready to help at anytime.

“Nice option for a short stay”

The "pousada" is not bad. But make no mistake, it is a simple place with a nice swimming pool. The location is good if you're in business with USP.

The "pousada" is not bad. But make no mistake, it is a simple place with a nice swimming pool. The location is good if you're in business with USP. The apartments are scattered around a central area where the restaurant and the swimming pool are located. Lots of stairs, not suitable for people with limited mobility. The bedrooms are simple, the internet slow, and the environment can be very noisy in the early morning, as employees walk around from 5am carrying trolleys and talking loudly. The swimming pool has a water fall that makes a lot of noise as well. For some weird reason they turned it on at 6am one day. Everybody in the hotel thought it was raining real hard. Breakfast is OK, with a basic choice of fruits and bread, ham, cheese. Lots of sweet cakes and tarts. The building is not very well kept (see the photos).
