Breakfast was ok.
The Hotel is advertised as a modern hotel but actually it is an old hotel with very loud A/C which barely functions. The elevator had a scary sound on the evening but maintained in the morning. The bed sheets and blankets were not clean. As we couldn't sleep the previous night , we asked the hotel to change us rooms and they offered us two separate rooms but both rooms have the same problem i.e loud and barely functioning A/C. Hence we decided to terminate our stay and asked for refund of the unused one day charge but the hotel refused. We eventually left without the refund as we couldn't afford another sleepless night.

The cleaning lady is very nice and friendly.
On May 22nd in the evening I asked to borrow a cup from the kitchen. The hotel reception lady was not so friendly and she denied to give me a simple cup... She said that kitchen is not allowed to give caps to guests. However this was no true. Later I asked kitchen staff for a cup and they gave it to me with no problem.

The breakfast was appropriate and the location was close to the centre and to metro station
Unfortunately after a long day doing tours i realised late at night that the toilet water flowing system did not work and i did not bother mentioning. After all that is something that should be checked unless i was positioned in a random room as it was a four bed room and i had booked a single one. Honestly i did not go out after sunrise but the neighbour looked somewhat abandoned and quite dirty and i do not think i would trust myself going out for a walk after dark. Some of the reception staff managed with english but i was given the impression that it is mostly prefered by either locals or those speaking the language.

Great breakfast. Helpful staff.
Courtains needed to be just a little wider to block morning light.

The location is very close to Lapa and surroundings.
The A/C wasn't working properly so I had to get the remote control from the front desk everytime I went into the room.

The view and and the size of the room and bathroom where great. The room service was a surprise, very very good and less expensive than any other option around. The breakfast was very good.
The cleaning about everything. Bathroom was not very clean, the bed clothes was very used and seems dirty. When we go for breakfast the tables are not clean. I have to clean everything for my family. It was dirty very dirty. I clean with alcohol gel and napkins.

The location is very convenient for accessing the tourist hotspots. We found the hotel to be well priced for the location. The rooms are nice and big with beautiful views on the upper floors. The bathroom was nice and big. The staff were very attentive, friendly and helpful. If you are staying on a budget, this is a good option. If you can afford an extra $70 a night, you will be more comfortable.
The location feels dangerous, especially at night. We didn't feel safe walking outside after dark. The cleanliness of the bedding, towels, and common areas was lacking. We found some harmless bugs in our bed, they did not bite. The breakfast was not great.

Bad communication, the WC overflowed into the bathroom wonder what kind of design was that ! It’s more of a bread and breakfast than a hotel . No apologies from the reception about the in convenience … I checked out early and informed the reception the previous evening. They said no dues .. early morning they literally ran after me to the taxi and asked me to settle the’ water ‘ bill !! They ‘verbally’ booked a tour for me for a day after. I asked them for the receipt. They said you will pay to the bus tour conductor. I had a serious doubt seeing their way they were communicating. So next day morning , I double checked at the reception if the booking was confirmed.. He checked with the tour operator and informed that there was no booking !!

Very good location, near the metro station and a lot of places for food. The staff was very friendly and attentive. Patricia at the reception speaks very good English and helped a lot by booking tours, The breakfast is very good with a lot of options. Furthermore, we had a late travel time and the hotel was so helpful that they gave the option for late check out without any additional payment. I will go back for sure.

Great location and view, nice breakfast most things are tasty, some, salty. Nice shower, clean. Great location, near Selaron Stairs and Saint Sebastian cathedral.
The location, it's full of beggars and smells a lot to urine in the surroundings, but this is something I noticed in several places in RJ

This is located in the perfect spot, sort of a four corners thing where you walk left from the door you are in Lapa or Centro, walk behind it and you are in Saint Theresa, and take a right and you are walking towards Laranjeira and the beaches. It's on the subway and on the tram. It's not a brand new hotel but it is clean, very quiet, and spacious. Shower is magnificently hot and high pressure. Staff is always at front desk and breakfast is good. Not sure if it is a Brazilian thing but it is essentially a desert bar which is not a bad thing. I think pound for pound especially for a single traveler who is here to explore Rio this is the best deal in town. I usually book a hotel for two nights then try to extend the stay if it is good or bail if it is no good, I kept paying for another night. Oh yeah, everything you want to see is basically on the same metro line. Like you can be at Ipanema and Copacobana in like fifteen minutes. So this is a fine choice if you are here for the beaches too.
Michael Diamond doesn't actually own the place. Maybe he used to. I think the owner's name is Clarence.

It seems the hotel was very nice sometime ago, but now it need some upgrade and maintenance.
The location in very well located, but the neighborhood is in decay stage, with homeless, graffiti and street vendors.
