The pictures are accurate that others have submitted. It is an old hotel and is certainly not on the beach or in some park like setting as some travel website photos might indicate. This is set right in an urban area and is an old, mostly well kept hotel. The price of a room somewhat indicates what you should be expecting. I was generally happy with the situation. The room did look like a 1950's motel, but that was ok because it was very clean. Everything did work. The a/c was a bit noisy, but did work. The employees really tried hard and the breakfast, although simple, was clean and generally fresh .....the employees were friendly and accommodating. So, I was basically o.k. with the negatives (the place is a homeless encampment on the streets outside) and the neg. interior issues. It was a good cheap pick to chill for the weekend and get something done at the embassy next week. There even was a super friendly English speaker on the front desk to smooth any rough edges out. So again, I was a happy camper..... until my horrible check out. Btw, I leave my room the way I found it, or as close to, when I check out ....just a matter of respect to the cleaner. In any case, I get to the front desk with my bags and the English speaker is on meal break. Ok, no big deal. Some lady I have not seen before presents me with a bill for some bottles of water. I haven't used any. There is a supermarket a short distance away. She keeps pushing the bill towards me and saying 'fr

The hotel is a little tired, but I often stay there because it is clean, the staff are helpful and the breakfast good too. For the price it is excellent value, near to Flamingo beach and two metro stations, and Santos Dumont airport.

Good location, but in need of makeover.

We have stayed at this hotel several times. The staff and quality of services are good, with a friendly atmosphere. However the rooms are tired and in need of a thorough makeover to modernise and bring them up to a more acceptable standard. Location is good near to Flamengo beach and bus and metro transport, and also near to Santos Dumont airport, Sugar Loaf Mountain within walking distance.

Average

We continue to stay at ths hotel because it is located near to Santo Dumont airport, Flamingo Beach, and the Sugar Loaf Mountain (Pao de Açucar) as well as public transport facilities. However it is increasingly in need of a major refurb throughout, and although clean has a very tired appearance. Staff friendly and very helpful.

Very mediocre spot to stay

It was a mediocre hotel, people were nice, but very no frills. My first room didnt have a steady wifi connection, which I needed for work, but they moved me to a room on the top floor with a nice view and better reception. It was complete with a sketchy jacuzzi tub that looked rusted and from 1973. The immediate area was pretty urban with not much to do, but it was a few blocks from a nice park and two different subway stops that were easy to get around with. There was also a cute little bar for locals called Bartman right across the way, I went there a few times. I felt like the hotel was overpriced.
