Shower water temperature mild to cold, one day sheets were missing on the bed, towels left on bathroom floor, toilet paper roll, not replaced, water in minibar not refilled, slow wi-fi. Terrible stay for a Best Western hotel whereas the other two in Rio are really good places.

Escolhei o hotel por conta da piscina, chegando lá fomos informados que a mesma estava desativa a tempos, e que a plataforma foi avisada sobre isso. As toalhas estavam sujas, com maquiagem e fedidas, mal lavadas.
