O café da manhã. A acomodação, embora simples, tinha tudo o que eu precisava.
A limpeza do quarto poderia ser melhor. O chão estava bem empoeirado, mas nada que me impediria de voltar.

Walking distace to Seleron steps and Metropolitan cathedral
Many homeless people are around but they are not harming us

The receptionist that was there when I arrived was very friendly and helpful, but that's the only good thing I can say from my stay. At this hotel, I had one of the worst experiences of my life so far.
Too much noise from the street, do not attempt to go there if you intend to sleep at night.
Not only is Lapa a bustling busy neighbourhood in Rio, but the location of this hotel is also at the centre of a lot of dodgy stuff. It was only chosen because I was supposed to sleep there for 1 night before my flight from St Dumond's airport, which is very close to the hotel; but guess what: I couldn't close my eyes for a minute as the street was full of people screaming (in a very creepy/scary way) the whole night. Later I learned from the uber driver that the surroundings of the hotel are also a point for prostitution (the reason why the frightful screams).
A freakshow and a traumatic experience I recommend avoiding if you can stretch your budget a little more.

Room was very big and good value. The bed was a good size and the reception guy was very polite and knew how to communicate.
WiFi was a bit unstable, it kept disconnecting which was a problem which led me to leaving the hotel. If the Internet is important to you then it might be best to choose another hotel.

Staff could not de enough for me despite struggling with language problems. My suitcase did not arrive from the airport so had a bad week without it and they were really kind . Thanks Guillem and Rodrigo!
Wonderful self service breakfast. Fresh fruit, eggs, sausage and cold meats and cheeses. Toaster and sandwich maker .
Large, clean room, big beds and good standard bathroom with plenty of hot water. Large fridge. Air conditioning Central location.
All in all exceptional value for money
No blinds or curtains!! (That's a first!)
Hard bed and small top sheet.
No coat hangers so I bought some and left them.
Nothing to stop mosquitoes entering the room as big gaps around the A/C. (I did not see mosquitoes but was bitten perhaps outside)

The staff were all great and so helpful
The Breakfast was good..except of the coffee was really lacking coffee lol..the rest was good .
The shower was so good with strong pressured hot water.
The location is just awesome.
*The room 203 was really small..could barely take a step in to get to the bathroom.
* The TV is useless 😒
*1st night.. The A/C was horrible..kept switching off every 5-7 minutes and there was a switch button that I had to wake up to switch it on again and that happened all night and i couldn't sleep as it was really hot.
* 2ns night.. i woke up with the feeling that there is something walking on my head..to my surprise when I opened my eyes that the pillow and lots of ants 🐜 😳 like a horror movie attacking me .. I immediately woke.. took a shower and cleaned the bed and here was my second sleepless night.
