Absolutely TERRIBLE. They claim to have parking, but its only about 20 spots and the cars can't get in or out freely without playing puzzle and removing all cars that are blocking the ones in the front, garanteed parking was the only reason we chose this dump. DIRTY! The towels and sheets have stains, the floors are sticky, everything inside the rooms are falling apart, dirty or stained, and I mean everything. The location is terrifying, people defecate and urinate on the streets, the restaurants around the area have roaches, we did not feel safe (pay the extra money and stay elsewhere). The one positive is the breakfast, simple but good.

Café da manhã razoável, mas com poucas opções. Os funcionários da recepção são simpáticos e atenciosos. O quarto e banheiro com tamanho bom. Roupa de cama limpinha. Nos arredores há alguns bares, farmácia. Por ficar próximo a Lapa, há ruas nas proximidades com boates e restaurantes. Contudo, é uma região com muitos moradores de rua.

Um hotel que tem potencial.

Infelizmente, minha esposa e eu não tivemos uma experiência muito boa. Ao chegar no quarto, encontramos diversos fios de cabelo no chão, demonstrando que o quarto não foi varrido. Foi necessário solicitar que fizessem uma limpeza adequada. No meio da estadia, colocamos a placa na porta solicitando a limpeza do quarto, esperamos até o dia seguinte para perguntar sobre a faxina e o pessoal da recepção informou que pediria para a faxineira executar a limpeza, contudo fomos embora e a faxineira não apareceu e nem deram satisfação sobre o assunto. O café da manhã é bem básico e teve um dia que o pão francês havia acabado quando chegamos para tomar nosso café. Os funcionários são educados e simpáticos, mas o hotel precisa fazer uma reciclagem no atendimento.

Sem conforto.

Vi que o hotel tem muitos quartos e quartos muito bons. Infelizmente o meu estava entre terrível e ruim. O ar condicionado era antigo e não funcionava e tinha uma janela com vista para uma parede de concreto. No quarto ao lado tinha ar condicionado e eu soube porque podia ouvir ele fazendo barulho e pingando. O banheiro tinha um odor ruim e pisos escorregadios. Não pegava internet dentro do meu quarto e a TV não funcionava. Graças a Deus a temperatura estava agradável porque se não fosse isso não conseguiria dormir. Café da manhã razoável, supriu as necessidades. A maioria dos atendentes é simpático também. Enfim. Há quartos que cumprem o prometido com o mínimo de conforto. Infelizmente o que fiquei não era um deles.

Hotel precário

Não vale a pena pelo preço. Preço alto para qualidade inferior. Quando cheguei no quarto, cheiro de mofo, placas de mofo nas paredes, no banheiro forte cheiro de mofo e no qual, quando sai a tarde e voltei a noite quando cheguei no quarto senti o quarto abafado, quando abri a porta do banheiro uma parte do teto estava no chão. Tirei foto e mostrei para o rapaz da portaria, ele trocou o meu quarto e o cheiro de mofo ainda estava presente. Hotel está necessitando de uma reforma e melhores cuidados. Hotel está em condições precárias. Os atendentes e as camareiras foram simpáticos e educados.

Preço caro para oque apresenta.

Hotel razoável, mas achei o preço alto para o que ele traz. - quarto com a descarga estragada. - café da manhã não foi tão bom como aparenta nas fotos e descrição. (Bolo queimado, presunto e mortadela com cheiro não muito agradável) -interfone do quarto não funciona. - lençol tinha marca de sola de sapato. - 1 elevador pra hóspedes e funcionários. Elogio para os funcionários de terem que subir as escadas as pressas para buscar coisas na cozinha que ficam no andar superior, porque o elevador é pequeno e geralmente não cabem os hóspedes e funcionários cheios de bandejas ao mesmo tempo.

Muito ruim. Fiquei em um quarto com muito desgaste e mofo, o ar condicionado de janela barulhento, banheiro com vazamentos, mal iluminado, sanitário sujo, esqueceram de deixar toalha de banho, cheiro ruim do ralo, roupas de cama e travesseiros amarelados, mas o pior de tudo, foram os percevejos de cama.
