Good location - close to Lapa, Gloria and Cinelândia. You can walk to Flamengo beach and Gloria Marina for a boat ride. The rooms are basic but comfortable and the shower is hot with excellent water pressure. The breakfast is good.

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.
