Cold AC and comfy bed, great for an airport hotel.
The receptionist was friendly, and both shuttle drivers were really nice. We arrived in Rio at midnight, so staying there was great, easy to get the free shuttle to the hotel, and the breakfast was really good.
Room was clean, having the restaurant/bar is a plus. Entry to the terminal requires advance planning. But if you end up at the wrong entrance, call the hotel and they will send someone to pick you up.
A no frills hotel room. Perfect for a one night stay between flights. Located within Terminal 1. About a 7-10 minute walk to Terminal 2. No windows, so if you need daylight, this isn’t for you. Breakfast was great! I was able to snag a double room for $126 CDN, which I think is great value. Staff was fine at check-in and check-out.
This place is awful. It is in abandoned Terminal 1- gross! Apparently the new one is temporarily closed but I would’ve stayed in my city hotel for an extra day over this
no indication at old (closed?) terminal 1 entrance on level 1 of hotel!! luckily two guests were using shuttle bus who told me to take lift to level 3 - where the hotel reception was immediately obvious. quick efficient, friendly check in (excellent English) nice room, good AC but no window- all fine
The place was average. For the cost, I don’t think this is good value and policy requires them to considerably upcharge on second guests and early check Ins. But the staff was incredibly friendly and helpful.
I suggest going to the other hotels near the airport

Room air did not work, moved us to another which was much smaller, but cooler - room was about a 2 star, napped on top os sheets - lobby and dining room were warm
Hotel is in a disused terminal and is extremely tired but served a purpose. If your from the UK think Easy Hotel or a poor travel lodge. However service was good and eas impecably clean
Staff at check in (9/9/25) were amazing, the girl at the desk was lovely and spoke amazing English. Also, we had a great waiter in the restaurant, younger guy who also spoke amazing English, same evening we checked in - he was wonderful and helpful. The hotel is not fancy, very basic, but it was very clean and very quiet which we greatly appreciated.

Hôtel location is excellent- close to the beach and close to all the stores and restaurants. Staff is helpful in finding tours, etc. The rooms are a bit run down but clean. No microwave, coffee machine or tea pot in the room or in easy access at the hotel. For us the biggest issue was no access to filtered water - had to either buy or ask the staff to fill our water bottles in the basement staff kitchen.
