Mattress is about 3 inches thick. Pillows were smelly. Shower was leaking water outside into the hallway. Breakfast is very basic. Better than not having a place to sleep at all. Reception was available 24 hours, unlike the information I received stated.

The area is terrible. Very dirty, noisy, a lot of homeless people. The only good thing about this hotel is the staff and the breakfast. I wouldn't recommend it for solo female travelers, especially first time in Brazil. I was so shocked and scared to leave my room.

The room was very colorful, but it was very comfortable. the lights and different settings were very cool. very modern . The staff was very nice and professional, especially Leo. For a foreigner is very difficult to adapt to Brazil, everything felt different to me, but he explained to me everything and was very patient.

Ótima experiência! Café da manhã muito bom. Roupas de cama limpas. Equipe sensacional. Apenas o ar condicionado é bem velho e barulhento, o piso do banheiro é bem antigo e o box apertado. A torneira da pia sai pouca água. A localização é excelente!

O hotel é bem bonzinho, parece velho mas tá reformado, com decoração e iluminação bonitas! O café da manhã é ótimo, melhor que de hotéis mais caros na região. Uma ótima foi que eles se dispuseram a servir o café a partir de 5:30, excelente pra quem pega vôo cedo ou até volta tarde da noitada. Estacionamos em frente ao hotel tranquilamente. O local é no miolo da Lapa, eu adoro, mas de madrugada tem que ficar atento, só não ficar perambulando. Do lado da escadaria Selaron, restaurantes, bares e o beco do Rato com o melhor samba do Rio na esquina!

Minha experiência nesse hotel foi horrível. Não chegamos a nos hospedar lá. Ao chegarmos no local, tivemos uma surpresa bastante desagradável. A recepcionista disse que por problemas de infiltrações não poderíamos ficar lá e nos mandou para um outro lugar, que segundo ela, era do mesmo dono, mas era uma espelunca, Parque Hotel, lugar horrível. Quando chegamos lá, outro estresse pois eles não estavam nos esperando, a recepcionista bem grossa disse que essa mulher não podia ficar mandando as pessoas pra lá porque lá já tava lotado. Eu só disse que era pra ela resolver pq eu já tinha pago. Então ea arrumou um quarto pra nós. Não conseguimos dormir a noite com tanto barulho. Café da manhã com quase nada, só o básico mesmo, café, pão, ovo, queijo, o elevador daqueles pré históricos que sacudia todo e a gente via lá embaixo porque tinha um espaço entre o elevador e o piso. Não foi por isso que eu paguei. Me senti lesada. Foi uma experiência estressante.
