NÃO RECOMENDO ESSE HOTEL.

A TV do quarto só funciona em três canais, o controle não funcionava, quarto infestado de baratas, os ocupantes de outros quartos ligavam o som muito alto e não havia nenhum funcionário para interpelá-los, sacos de lixo encostados nas paredes do corredor, foi necessário ir pessoalmente na recepção para reclamar do quarto. Logo depois apareceu um senhor que providenciou a troca do quarto, mas a TV tinha uma tela minúscula e, também, não funcionava todos os canais e algumas baratinhas surgiram no banheiro.

Custo-Benefício - Centro Histórico de Porto Alegre

O Scala é um hotel simples, quase ao lado Mercado Municipal de Porto Alegre. O café da manhã tem itens básicos, mas atende bem. Em relação ao quarto single, a tv é de 14 polegadas, somente com canais abertos; o chuveiro é elétrico, sem box; é uma opção para quem quer custo-benefício, um hotel bem típico daqueles para estadias rápidas; a recepção atendeu bem quando necessário

Sem frigobar e sem estacionamento grátis

O hotel é razoável, mas no Google dizia que tinha frigobar e estacionamento grátis. Quando cheguei lá além de o quarto não ter frigobar, não possuia estacionamento grátis, ele precisa ser pago separadamente, então era um custo que eu não estava planejando.

Barato

O hotel é muito bem localizado no centro histórico, o que é super conveniente. O café da manhã é simples mas super gostoso. O chuveiro é bem fácil de entender e a água quentinha. No entanto a limpeza do quarto deixou a desejar, tinha coelhos de poeira nos cantos do quarto e mesmo com o clima super frio, tinha muitos mosquitos no quarto. Precisei pedir um novo rolo de papel higiênico, pois não trocaram o que estava vazio. O valor foi bastante em conta, e como eu sabia que ficaria fora o dia todo, valeu a pena pela economia. O wi-fi é muito bom!
