The taxi that I booked meets me on arrival at airport and take me to the Syds Guest house. But I did not feel welcome. They give me a room with two small beds and bathroom out of the room. I insisted before they give me a room with one bed and bathroom inside. There were nobody in the morning to provide the breakfast. The next day, I received a Email saying that I have to go back to the horible room without toilet. I decided to leave this awful place. I booked another hotel in Praia and left in th eafternoon.
Conclusion: I think this place is a restaurant and not a hotel... Trip.com shound revise its position and stop sending guests there
