Ok so i stayed in this property for 10 nights. I must say the staff went above their service to say it is a 2 or 3 star hotel. My room was cleaned everyday sometimes i did not even ask and it was still cleaned with new beddings each day. You dont even get this type of service in a 4 star sometimes. The staff at the reception were very friendly and helpful all the time. Welldone to the cleaners who cleaned my room everyday. Yes outside the location is not very friendly as homless and drug users are sleeping avross the road however they caused no harm or any inconvienice to me.

I liked Vanessa, the front desk girl I checked in with. But this hotel cost me a lot more than it should have, even with Carnaval going on. The rock hard bed and pillow caused issues with my back, shoulders, neck and jaw. The door doesn't lock from the inside from what I saw. It was quieter than other places I stayed in and in a good location though. The AC system doesn't work properly, so my room was either too hot or too cold (when it was on)

The rooms were filthy with stains and hair everywhere, the shower head had mold all in it, we walked around bare foot for merely minutes and the soles of our feet were black. The room was so bad we had to leave and find somehwere new. The only thing good about this place was the front desk workers as they were nice but I would not not recommended this place to anyone.

Adequate

We got off a cruise ship so this hotel was conveniently close. Although the neighborhood was dicey (risky, unpredictable). It was close to the Central train & bus station. As two women using public transportation we managed ok close to buses & metro. Since there were events nearby due to the Olympics there was a lot of foot traffic in the area along with buses, cars & taxis. At other times I wouldn't want to walk at night in this neighborhood. The hotel of course doesn't measure up to it's photos, the shower, toilet,sink worked adequately but old with patched tiles cracked sinks. This is not a "throw-away" society, they make due with what the've got patch & repair. The room was small, the bed short, but the AC and 2 lifts worked as well & free WIFI. Though "old" it served us ok. For the Olympics the price was good. Breakfast ok. The front desk people were very "simpatico" friendly and very helpfull.

Perfect for Passing Through

This was a great simple hotel. It was very clean. We only needed it for one night and it was perfect for this. It was a great price and the staff were very nice and helpful. I saw in a previous comment that no one spoke English. I spoke broken portuguese and didnt have a problem. Fantastic breakfast! All Brazil hotels who say they have free breakfast is really only french bread and powdered coffee. This was not the case here. They had an amzing breakfast with hot and cold options.

Budget Traveler

This Hotel is on the Northern end of the Centro (Downtown) area of Rio in an older underdeveloped area that could use a facelift. It's a short hike to Ave Rio Branco and the modern area of Downtown. The hotel itself was like stepping back into the 1960 Vegas...I felt like I was waiting from Dean Martin,Sammy Davis Jr. & Frank Sinatra to walk in with their Martini glasses. lol The room I had was their top of the line room ($64) more like the Apartments in Rio I use to stay in. There is lot's of space with a glass enclosed Jacuzzi Tube in the middle of the room and a King sized bed and wall couch (60's style). The Bathrooms were big and very nice with a locker room like shower with outstanding water pressure, though it could use better lighting over the mirror area. For the frequent traveler to Rio like myself who wants to get away from the tourist scene in Copa and wants to experience another part of the city while not spending too much money...the Pompeu is a viable option. Backpackers who want to be one step above a Hostile for not much more money, the single rooms will be more than adequate.

Area not too flash. All right for 1 night but.

ROOM TINY and 500mls of water for $5 is a bit over the top when it's only worth about 50c in the supermarket.
