Las fotos nada que ver con la realidad. Cuarto oscuro y viejo con olor a que estuvo cerrado por mucho tiempo. El mando del aire es en la pared y es imposible entenderlo. Piso sucio. El papel de baño son servilletas. Las lamparas de pared no servian.

Bare minimum

If you have no other means, you can use this hotel. It is enough for crashing between flights, but no more than that. It lacks power outlets near the bed, which forced me to move it closer to one, in order to use my CPAP. I was clean and the air conditioning worked well. The bed was enough for sleeping.

WORST HOTEL EXPERIENCE EVER !!!

It was AWFUL !!! First, it was impossible to find. It’s located in the old Terminal One building of GIG, Rio’s international airport. There are no signs on the building telling you there is a hotel inside. Once you’re in the building, the old airport terminal, there are no signs directing to the hotel. There were three men and a woman checking people in. The men were rude and the single woman did all the work. The male reception staff ignore customers, even to the point of walking away when customers came up to the counter. We were charged an extra $50 for a second person and $30 for parking. You have to pay the parking at a kiosk in the basement, AGAIN with no directions how to get there. WORST HOTEL EXPERIENCE EVER !!!

Wrong description, the terminal where the hotel is not operating terminal. This terminal was not connected to actual terminal, and also homeless are there, elevator smell like pee. And room where we stay was very noisy, people walking hallway, you can hear very loudly, because it’s not carpet, and very cheap, thin insulation. So disappointing, never recommended anyone.
