Ibis Budget Salvador
It was a great stay, just to consider that is a budget hotel so facilities might be a bit smaller than usuall, other than that, totally recommend for a few nights in the city.

Pisa Plaza Hotel
We went on the cheap as we were only going to be there for 7 hours. It was what we expected, pictures always look better. They have a nice free breakfast and it was close to bus station we were leaving from the next morning.
