Great located, room very spacious, staff is always friendly, breakfast buffet has many options!
Really dirty hotel…and likely not upgraded or cleaned since 1950. I was booked for two nights but opted to forgo what I paid for the second night to get to a clean hotel.
The worst place in São Paulo! It's a disgusting place! I got to my room and everything was dirty, the towels weren't clean, and the bathroom hadn't been cleaned. Plus, everything is old and in poor condition, the elevator smells like food, and it's very damp. I went downstairs right away to check out, and they promised to give me a refund, but that never happened, and they stole my money.
Banheiro horrível, vc tem que subir em banheira para tomar banho e banheiro fica todo alagado

Ficamos num quarto péssimo. O problema não é ser antigo, o problema é ficar num quarto com madeiras de portas e de móveis podres. O ambiente é bem deteriorado, tanto no quarto como nos corredores. Os manobristas do estacionamento não atendem uniformizados e só tem um por turno. As vezes você chega e não tem ninguém, obviamente porque pode ter descido para deixar ou pegar um carro de um outro hóspede, o que causa receio de alguém mal intencionado se apresentar como manobrista e roubar o seu carro.
Propaganda enganosa do hotel, nas imagens disponibilizadas pelo hoteis.com parece um hotel bem cuidado e lindo, pessoalmente é um trem caindo aos pedaços, toalha com resto de barata.

A equipe foi muito atenciosa e prestativa. O café da manhã excelente.
O quarto que apresentou uns problemas estruturais, mas nada que impedisse a minha estada.
Hotel muito antigo. Primeira noite o ar condicionado não funcionou e o chuveiro só saía água super quente, pois a torneira da água fria não funcionava. Trocaram a acomodação na segunda noite.
Precisa passar por uma reforma com urgência!
Os elevadores apresentaram defeitos durante a minha estadia e devido ao hotel estar lotado, dificultou a locomoção por exemplo em horário do café da manhã em que muitos hóspedes tinham que esperar muito para chegar até o local do café.

Habitaciones antiguas y con olor desagradable en el último piso, solo 2 ascensores antiguos, y es un conflicto a la hora del desayuno, el desayuno muy bueno, lo mejore del hotel sin duda
O quarto superior em que me colocaram era um quarto adaptado para cadeira de rodas, as paredes estavam sujas, as TVs não pegavam nenhum canal e recepcionistas atendem parecendo não querendo estar lá, foi a última vez que volto.

Teve um funcionários da noite que não atende bem. Dão poucas informações! Um atendente do estacionamento também não atende bem. Tivemos problemas também com elevador. Tive que subir 10 andares a pé, só tinha um elevador funcionando, sendo que tinham três. E ainda elevador pequeno demais.
É a segunda vez que me hospedo no hotel, na primeira fui sozinha e a desta vez foi com minha família! A localização é o ponto central; os quartos são confortáveis com um isolamento bom; tem banheira ( um pouco antiga, mas tem opção do chuveiro). Todavia, eu sugeriria algumas alterações como: a troca da cortina de banho por uma parte de vidro ou outra solução, pq essa cortina ainda de anti-higiênica é pouco efetiva (molhando todo o banheiro); um sistema de canais, pq pegar somente um canal é complicado quando se vai com criança; a manutenção dos elevadores ( pq ele dá muitos trancos e somente dois funcionavam); a variedade no café da manhã ( dois dias seguidos com os mesmos itens- é um café bom, mas poderia ter bolos e sucos diferentes).
