Very nice staff..Locatio is lively, but convenient.
The front reception staff were lovely. The hotel is old and needs a renovation. It is a block from the famous tourist stairs which was awesome but the area is not a good place to stay if vacationing.
The property is in very bad condition, and the staff do not speak English at all.

Noisy
Ridiculously noisy. It may be out of the hotel's control but neighbouring rooms made so much noise that sleep was not possible the first night and near midnight the second night. Good loca5near Selaron steps.
This is right in the middle of Lapa party district and for $30 for a Friday night during Carnival, I appreciate that it is cheap, however, some things are just completely unacceptable.
When I checked into my room which the cleaners were just leaving I found a good sized room with fridge, twin beds, a wardrobe and TV and a good sized bathroom. However, the sink and co. had not be cleaned and contained male fluid stains en-masse. Both looked like they hadn't been cleaned in months and the floor was also filthy. The bed sheet contained a hand sewn rip too (I mean... seriously?).
The shower was very good though I know for sure that everything was beyond filthy. The pillows stank. With such an attitude to hoarding old or broken appliances and linen etc. you can be sure that everything is unsanitary.
Aside from that stated above all the staff were really nice, but....that doesn't make up for what I saw.
É um local muito conservado visto que se trata de uma construção antiga.
Quarto limpo, talvez a cama não agrade a todos. Equipe de funcionários muito boa mesmo. Em todos os setores. Ar condicionado funcionando normalmente. Estacionamento coberto.
Me senti prezado pela Hotel.com que divulga fotos de um hotel totalmente diferente. Por isso reclamei primeiramente com. A central depois com o hotel. O hotel precário com muito mofo. Cama mofada, tudo ruim.
Finalizei a estadia no primeiro dia que entrei e fui para outro hotel. Fui colocada num quarto mofado, móveis em péssimo estado, sem ventilação, TV com tela queimada, wi-fi péssimo, cama afundando quando deita, porta do banheiro sem fechadura coberta com papel, atendimento péssimo, não recomendo a ninguém. As fotos que colocaram na postagem não condiziam com o que encontrei. Terrível.
As camas estão em péssimo estado de conservação. Colchões deformados, roupas de cama manchadas também em péssimo estado de conservação para um hotel. O ar condicionado funciona bem. O banheiro atende às necessidades basicas. A localização é excelente para quem quer turistar. Ao lado da escadaria Selaron e a poucos metros dos Arcos da Lapa.
