Real mess
Terrible management, bad conditions. This is not a hotel. This is a hostel. Pictures on the website are different from the offered rooms. During my stay, I felt a strong smell from the toilet drain. If you want a room similar to those pictures, you are charged extra. During my stay, a guy from reception took of his shirt and stayed like that for hours. Area near the pool is very cute, breakfast is nice. On the other hand, I wish I could have my money back.

Really good
The hotel it's a good option if you're staying a couple of days in Rio do Janeiro. The rooms are a bit small, but the staff is amazing and really sweet, and everything is aesthetically pleasing! The breakfast could be improved, but it was really good! It's also very well located

Pictures are not even close to reality
I booked here based on the picures of hotel and reviews. Honestely, i was very disappointed by all. Staff showed me different rooms when i checked in but there were all the same bad. Building was out dated and room condition was just like cheap hostel. Washroom cailing was opened so your partner can hear all you do in there. Windows are very old so i didnt feel secure. Does not lock properly. The only nice thing was staff. I chosed to check-in another hotel nearby although i already paid for this. Refund was not available.

Great location, wonderful staff
I spent a few days in Casa Tuxi, the staff is great, always helpful and checking all the details to make my stay super confortable. My only advise is regarding the wifi which doesnt work in the room and was weak sometimes in the lobby.

An ok place to stay.
We chose the hotel for a-locality and b-cost. It is located in a great location for the metro and walking. The pictures on hotels.com are nothing like reality though. Breakfast was good. Our room had a bed and a bedside table on one side and a wall on the other. There's nowhere to hang clothes or shelves to out anything on. There's one chair only. There is a fridge though. We were there for 4 nights and although we asked for a change of towels after the 2nd night, and the bin emptied, neither was done in the 4 days we stayed. Wifi in the reception area only; our room had a window onto the passageway and there was a light on most of the night which was annoying. Most of the staff spoke English which was a bonus. You have to ask for a hairdryer if you need one. It would have been nice to have some insight of how to get to everywhere when asked or even before asking. Perhaps an informational leaflet would be helpful. There's a supermarket a little to the left on exiting the hotel which has a restaurant. Excellent pizzas. You order your food, choose the wine or beer from the supermarket and sit at the table. Fabulous - but we found it; no one told us which was a pity. Would we stay again? Yes but. It that room.

Tem uma proposta boa, mas dá pra melhorar
O atendimento do staff é bom, as pessoas são simpáticas e o Hotel tem uma proposta muito bom de acolher pessoas com transtornos psiquiátricos, tendo alguns funcionários com essa condição: isso é bastante legal. A localização é excelente e o hotel é bonito. Contras: muuuuuita poeira, atacou minha rinite e da minha companheira, porque há muitas coisas antigas lá, que, num primeiro momento, parecem legais e trazem a ideia de um local tradicional, porém, à noite é que se percebe o colchão empoeirado e o local precisa de uma limpeza urgentemente. Outro ponto ruim: o chuveiro do nosso quarto estava dando choque. O café da manhã é servido em uma bandeja bem bonita, mas as coisas são velhas e não são frescas. Parece que falta um pouco de administração no local. Eu não voltaria, infelizmente.

Primeira vez viajando sozinha, experiência ruim.
Minha primeira vez viajando sozinha e tive uma experiência que não começou nada legal... O check-in da pousada é as 14h, por conta do atraso do meu ônibus cheguei lá às 15h30 e o meu quarto ainda NÃO estava pronto. A recepcionista, um amor de pessoa dela não tenho o que reclamar, me informou que estavam terminando de arrumar. Questionei por conta do horário e ela informou que era por conta do hóspede anterior que havia saído muito tarde. Então se eu chegasse as 14h eu teria que ficar esperando até as 16h pq foi o horário que me liberaram. Mas esse não é o pior dos fatos. Enquanto eu esperava, uma moça que acredito ser a dona, veio conversar comigo me oferecendo algumas opções para que eu desistisse da estadia. Me ofereceu desconto, e ai ela me colocaria em um quarto com qualidade bem inferior (pra não dizer outra coisa), depois ofereceu cancelamento (no meio do feriadão, com G20 na cidade ela queria que eu encontrasse SOZINHA outra estadia) e por fim ela viu que eu não iria ceder. O chuveiro não esquentou em nenhum dia, e não teve serviço de limpeza durante a minha estadia. Além desses fatos, a pousada estava com um ambiente bem pesado por conta de outros hóspedes que causaram MUITO, discussões, conversas altas etc. No dia do check-out, a dona, se enganou e foi bem grosseira comigo. A pousada não é péssima... mas falta profissionalismo dessa moça. A Natália é um amor de pessoa, obrigada.

Conservação horrível do estabelecimento, dos quartos. Barulhento, os funcionários gritam o tempo todo, não dá para dormir. Os quartos não tem privacidade nenhuma, são claros demais. Não tem café da manhã, como deveria na diária (estava incluso), não tinha nada, só leite e café. Aluguei um quarto e quando cheguei, estava ocupado, me colocaram em outro. Não tem toalhas de rosto, funcionária disse que não existe lá, nem tapete de banheiro. Papel higiênico, tem que pegar de rolo em rolo. Piscina suja. Enfim.. experiência terrível! Fui para relaxar, acabei voltando mais estressada.
