Ratty is the only word to describe this place: grubby & stained towels, lumpy mattresses, raggedy sheets, dirty corridors, slimy shower, plus the traditional poor service of Brazilian hospitality-service staff (I was born in Brazil, so that part didn't faze me).

We stayed in a triple room for 2 nights.. the reception staff were very helpful and friendly. The room was spacious and clean.

The bed was extremely uncomfortable and the sheets did... More

No major complaints however; it's clean and the price is no more than you would expect for a big city.

This hotel is good value for money for those who require fairly basic accommodation. The building is old, with some character, but is clean and tidy. The staff speak some English and are helpful. Breakfasts are adequate but lack variety and imagination. The redeeming feature of this hotel is it's central location within Rio, opposite a small park and only... More
