This property urgently needs a renovation in the bedrooms and bathrooms. Everything is very old and have mold in the room and bathroom. The towels are extremely old, like the sheets that barely cover the mattresses, not to mention that if you don't know Rio de Janeiro, this property is very far from the city's tourist attractions, it’s located on the part of the mountains and when it rains it is extremely dangerous. My husband and I found us self in very dangerous position. I talked to the hotel manager and he told me he couldn't help with the refund for the other days.

This is being great. The property is beautiful, clean, and very upling. Staff has been wonderful and some speak English. This is a property in the country side of Rio and gives you a feeling of being out of the craziness of Rio. It's great for families and coupleas alike.if you come to Rio, and is looking for a place to rest while having fun, this is the place to be. If you are from Brazil, this is the place to be. I totally recommend.

horário do café da manhã é estendido em relação a outros hotéis, oferecem um chá da tarde pra os hospedes todos os dias, o atendimento é excelente e sempre tem alguém pronto para te ajudar. local fácil de achar e não tão afastado do centro, proporciona um sossego incrível. em minha opinião eles só deveriam ter alguma política em relação ao uso dos acess´rios de piscina ( espreguiçadeiras, sofás, puffs e cama), pessoal que estava na piscina parou para almoçar e deixaram simplesmente todas as espreguiçadeiras marcadas com as roupas de cama deles, tinha casas com roupas em 2 espreguiçadeiras e as bolsas na cama, quando cheguei com minha família tive que ficar em uma mesa pois não tinha local livre, depois que almoçaram os outros hóspedes foram para seus lugares marcados e outros saíram da área.

Hotel extremamente velho e mal cuidado. Colchão mole demais e todo deformadoo. Banheiro muito antigo, com chuveiro que não mantinha a água quente direto. Esquentava e esfriava várias vezes durante o banho. No domingo de manhã a água chegou a ser interrompida por alguns segundos. Café da manhã sem reposição e desorganizado. Experiência lamentável!

Eu amei o hotel e sua localização. 6 min do palácio de Cristal de carro. Deles sorte que fomos no dia das crianças e eles fizeram várias atrações especiais, área p as crianças, noite do cinema, café da manhã temático da Disney, lanche da tarde com oficina de cup cake, eu achei isso o máximo. Fora q a piscina é aquecida e isso é uma mega diferencial. Já reservamos a nossa volta.

Decepcionada

O quarto é limpo, os funcionários são muito educados e prestativos, mas o hotel não se parece com as fotos do Hotels.com, é nítido que as fotos passaram por um filtro, fiquei um pouco decepcionada. O café da manhã é muito bom, mas havia talheres e pratos sujos junto com os limpos. Utilizam um desinfetante que tem um cheiro muito forte e é um cheiro ruim, que fica por todo o hotel, chega a arder o nariz.
