It was nice and clean inside. But, I speak English and Spanish and the staff did not want to communicate with me. I tried to talk to them and they ignored me on several different occasions. There was one guy who spoke English who was nice and helped me out named Zion. But the rest of the staff seemed disrespectful of the language barrier no matter how hard I tried on my end to communicate with them.

The design of our room was great. It had a roomy entrance way that we could leave our packs in, which gave us plenty of space in our room. The shower was amazing! The staff were always helpful and kind - even going out of their way sometimes. Didn't like that we had to ask to get our room cleaned - we didn't know that we had to, so put up with wet towels and smelly bins for a few days. Location was a bit rough around it but we didn't find it a problem at all

Great stay
Booked a triple room during Carnaval. Plenty of space, comfortable beds, very quiet, daily room servicing with fresh towels, bar fridge, good air conditioning, extensive buffet breakfast any time you liked between 6:30am and 10:30am, friendly staff (mostly Portuguese speaking only). Supermarket across the road for any snacks you might want. Opportunities for improvement? Only small things: WiFi only worked at one end of the room, waste bin for the toilet was too small for three people, shower floor was too flat so soaked the bath mat during each shower. Surrounding area is not that nice compared to the south zone of Rio, but is a lot better than the downtown Centro area. We felt safe enough to walk to and from the Sambadrome. Would we go back? Yes, in a heartbeat.

Local Brazilian ambieance.
Breakfast was better than larger hotel we stayed at later on the beach. 15 Minute walk to metro station and Maracana Stadium. An older building but HOT water and Cold air conditioning, and two elevators. Room service $5.00 for Hamburger and fries in 10 minutes. Very nice people but learn a little Portuguese as English will work but takes a little patience. Tour set up 8-9 hours covers all major sites $100 per person
