The hotel has a lot going for it with friendly staff and decent service, but the rooms could use some improvement in cleanliness and décor. The location is great for daytime activities, while dining options leave something to be desired. Overall, it offers good value for money, although some aspects weren't ideal.

I had a great stay at this hotel with stunning views overlooking Guanabara Bay. The room was large, clean, and comfortable, though it wasn't very quiet at night due to surrounding noise and the air conditioning. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, arranging tours and quick transportation options for me. While the nearby nightlife was vibrant, I did have to be cautious about my belongings. Overall, it's a solid choice with a few minor drawbacks.

I had a pleasant stay at the hotel, which had a huge bed in a basic room and an amazing shower with plenty of hot water. The location was convenient, especially for accessing the metro and exploring the area. However, I found the noise at night from the ACs and the surroundings quite disruptive. The staff was friendly and helped us out with a tour and taxi arrangements, which I appreciated. Overall, it's a decent option for those looking for value for money and close proximity to key spots.

The hotel offers a good value for money with spacious rooms and a fantastic shower, but the noise from the kitchen early in the morning made it hard to get a full night's sleep. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, assisting with tours and transportation. The location has its pros and cons; it's close to vibrant nightlife yet can feel unsafe for solo travelers. Overall, a decent stay but with a need for some improvements.

This hotel boasts an incredible location, with stunning views and easy access to local attractions. The rooms were spacious and had a great view of the bay, but unfortunately, there was a persistent smell of bacon in the common areas. The service was attentive and efficient, helping us with our transportation needs. On the downside, the dining options for breakfast were lacking in variety and often ran out early. Overall, it’s a decent spot for the price, but be prepared for some minor inconveniences.
