Serene spot for relaxation. Large pool long enough for me to swim laps. Spacious room with almost no street noise disturbance. Staff very attentive and kind, especially Guilherme and Vladimir at reception. Extensive breakfast selection with certain items cooked to your order.

It doesn’t feel like a 4.5 star hotel. The staff didn’t even bother to help with luggage or to say good morning. You get charged the water in the room. Most hotels give that for free. The pool didn’t seem all that clean either. It is located at a good spot since you have everything close by. Just be careful walking at night. It may not be safe.

This is a pleasant enough hotel in a very run down area of Rio. The hotel has seen better days. It uses Brazilian plugs but they have no adapters to lend or buy. The meal service is sketchy. Okay for a very short stay if you do not mind being a prisoner in the hotel at night. I stayed in a what was supposed to be a heritage room but most of the nice features had been stripped out.

I liked the breakfast and pool at this property. The neighborhood unfortunately has alot of homeless people on the streets and garbage but is good if you love music as the Lapa area has many music bars and restaurants. The staff is nice but they do not have too much knowledge about recommendations for swimable beaches and family activities.

Solo traveling female. I unfortunately cut my stay short here and went back to a previous hotel. I was booked here for 4 days, I am traveling to Brazil after visiting 4 countries before (in 1 trip). I had multiple rolling luggage (3) bapack totebag. The security guard was kind enough to take my largest luggage down the flight of stairs to reception. Once I was checked in, I was told my room was on the 2nd floor (pink buildings) and there was no elevator in that area. I asked if someone would be able to help with my bags, mainly just needed help with the 1 larger/heavier luggage (under 50lbs but just big for me) I was told no, they didn't have anyone. I found that odd and just said ok and went to my room. I lug everything upstairs to the room and it's ok. The room is older, boutique style. The bathroom is decent but dated, there was shower gel provided as hand soap at the sink which i found odd but not a big deal. Here's why i had to leave: mosquitoes. I understand it is tropical but the amount of mosquitoes i was swatting within the first hour was insane. I have stayed in hostels in Cuba and other parts of Brazil (Paraná) and didnt have them IN the room (also staff always offers to help you with bags). I ordered dinner delivery and sat at the pool area to eat and guess what I see, a bellman with a luggage cart bringing someone's luggage to the tall white building. So I'm not exactly sure what that was about. I ultimately left after the first night and don't regret it

Food was just ok in my opinion. Breakfast was free but left a lot to be desired. Very clean and secure place but once you leave the premises you’re on your own and may see any and everything. But that’s all over Lapa. So if you’re faint of heart this may not be for you.

This property is beautiful. There is an older section that has great character and architecture. This is where we stayed. It was a very great experience. There is also a more modern part of the property with all the modern conveniences. Once inside the facility it is very clean, safe, and inviting. However, the area of the city is less desirable. Like most cities, there are areas less clean and less safe. This is the area of the city that this hotel is in. Plenty of trash and unsavory smells in the area around the hotel. If you are a little adventurous and cautious this is a wonderful hotel to stay in. Again, the hotel and staff met or exceeded everything we could want for our trip to Rio.
