Cama de mola, fazia muito barulho, o ar condicionado faz mais zoada do que gelava. Nao tinha frigobar. O elevador é muito antigo, como me falou a acessorista, o hotel tem 98 anos. Precisei tomar café da manhã antes das 7:00h (horário inicial), mas não me deram nem um pão com suco. A localização é muito boa, fica proximo ao Mercado da Boa Vista e ao shoping Boa Vista

Tranquilo, arejado, limpo. Rua tranquila. O problema é a garagem de difícil estacionamento e, às vezes, tem que tirar o carro para outro visitante sair. Elevador antigo que limita a autonomia do visitante.

Não vale nunca o valor que cobram. O hotel é muito precário, tudo bem ser antigo, mas é precário. O elevador a gente precisa esperar o funcionário chegar pra poder manusear, no quarto não pega wi-fi, não tem água quente, e a cigarra pra chamar o elevador no andar que eu estava não

Até vale a pena, mas...

A construção é antiga e poderia estar mais conservada; o restaurante e o café da manhã poderiam ser melhores mas esteve muito cheio em várias ocasiões; o quarto estava limpo, mas o ar condicionado era muito barulhento. Enfim, relativamente bom para uma passada rápida e sem muito luxo.

Poderia melhorar. Deve colocar nas informaçoes que para guarda as malas é cobrado, visto que nao tem e fui supriendida com tal. primeiro hotel que utilizo que faz essa cobraça. O cafe da manha tambem nao é bom. Pequenos detalhes que muitas vezes muda o conceito obtido sobre um hotel.

Hotel Quebra Galho

Hotel antigo. Entendo que como é uma área de preservação cultural, o Hotel tem preservar a construção. Trata-se de um hotel de 1920, portanto a estrutura e mantem. O que não é aceitável e á qualidade dos quartos. Camas desconfortáveis, não há lençóis, e o que cobre o colchão está totalmente encardido e velho. A localização foi a única coisa que me agradou, pois como precisava estar no Consulado dos Estados Unidos as 7 da manhã, do hotel fui a pé em 5 minutos. Acredito que uma administração profissional do hotel este estaria a altura de receber hóspedes. Confesso que já fiquei em pousadas de postos de combustíveis por essas estradas e dormi bem mais confortável. Sinceramente, não indico este hotel, a menos que ocorra a mesma necessidade tive. Há varias outras opções próximo ao consulado, mas infelizmente como estava havendo uma feira nacional de artes naquela data, todos estavam lotados e este foi a única alternativa que tive. Mas a experiencia foi péssima, quatro com diversas infiltrações e um odor terrível de mofo.
