    Great location with a lively atmosphere

    I enjoyed my stay here, especially because of its central location close to various food spots and public transports. The rooftop bar provided amazing views of the city, which was a highlight of my experience. However, the kitchen could use some more utensils for better convenience.

    friendly atmosphere

    perfect central hub for exploring vibrant rio attractions and parks

    I loved how close this spot is to both the beautiful Escadaria Selaron and the fascinating Museu Nacional de Belas Artes, making my city strolls incredibly enjoyable, and the area was filled with amazing restaurants like Pizzaria Guanabara just a few steps away, perfect for relaxing after a day of exploring. As a single traveler, I appreciated the relaxed vibe of the shared areas, though the rooms could use a bit more attention.

    pet-friendly location
    cultural highlights
    slow breakfast service

    The location was amazing for exploring Rio, just a quick tram ride to sights like the Odeon cinema and CCBB exhibition space. We loved how pet-friendly the place was, allowing us to bring our dog along for the adventure.

    In my wife’s opinion, the breakfast options could be improved for families, perhaps with quicker grab-and-go items.

    The food delivered authentic dishes, which were excellent, and my room was very comfortable, aligning perfectly with my expectations. Extra security at the premises eased any concerns I had. However, the common areas were a bit noisy at times, and I found the breakfast options somewhat limited. Overall, the atmosphere was lively, especially with the DJ nights on the rooftop.

    I loved the elegant decor and how clean and comfy my room was during my stay. The sun terrace was perfect for relaxing, and I enjoyed the live entertainment in the evenings. I wish they had stocked the bathroom with soap and toilet paper, but overall, it was a lovely experience! 😊

    The staff here were friendly and helpful, truly enhancing the experience. However, the cleanliness needed improvement, with concerns about dirty bathrooms and stained bedding. It's also in a somewhat sketchy area. The location is central, so not all was lost during my stay.
