Pousada Toledo

Socorro and Edson

Socorro and Edson are from Ouro Preto and inaugurated the pousada in 1998. They also have a shop for trading antiques. So, their goal was to unite Tourism and antiques. Edson runs the antique shop and Socorro is responsible for the pousada. Edson is very talkative and loves to talk about Ouro Preto's history including its famous people and facts. Socorro is a bit shy but when she starts talking about Ouro Preto she shows all her passion. She also likes a good novel and will tell you many stories. At Pousada Toledo you will feel all the love that Edson and Socorro have for Ouro Preto.
