Não vale nunca o valor que cobram. O hotel é muito precário, tudo bem ser antigo, mas é precário. O elevador a gente precisa esperar o funcionário chegar pra poder manusear, no quarto não pega wi-fi, não tem água quente, e a cigarra pra chamar o elevador no andar que eu estava não
A construção é antiga e poderia estar mais conservada; o restaurante e o café da manhã poderiam ser melhores mas esteve muito cheio em várias ocasiões; o quarto estava limpo, mas o ar condicionado era muito barulhento. Enfim, relativamente bom para uma passada rápida e sem muito luxo.
Como comprei 02 reservas, já expliquei na outra reserva. Café da manhã fraco, quarto com mal cheiro de esgoto e colchão com um buraco. Hotel precisaria passar por melhorias urgentemente.
Bem localizado, quarto antigo mas organizado e limpo, pela história do hotel, nao pode ser "modernizado".
Funcionários atenciosos.
Elevador antigo e precisa de uma pessoa para manusear, mas nada que estrague a estadia.
Poderia melhorar. Deve colocar nas informaçoes que para guarda as malas é cobrado, visto que nao tem e fui supriendida com tal. primeiro hotel que utilizo que faz essa cobraça.
O cafe da manha tambem nao é bom.
Pequenos detalhes que muitas vezes muda o conceito obtido sobre um hotel.
Os atendentes do hotel sao muito atenciosos. Gisele, Maira e Celia. A camareira Neves e maravilhosa. E a terceira vez que vou no Hotel. Muito agradavel. Nao e luxuoso, mas e aconchegante.

Trata-se de um edificio muito antigo com arquitetura histórica porém, sem reforma.
O atendimento é perfeito e o café da manhã satisfaz.
Hotel antigo. Entendo que como é uma área de preservação cultural, o Hotel tem preservar a construção. Trata-se de um hotel de 1920, portanto a estrutura e mantem. O que não é aceitável e á qualidade dos quartos. Camas desconfortáveis, não há lençóis, e o que cobre o colchão está totalmente encardido e velho. A localização foi a única coisa que me agradou, pois como precisava estar no Consulado dos Estados Unidos as 7 da manhã, do hotel fui a pé em 5 minutos. Acredito que uma administração profissional do hotel este estaria a altura de receber hóspedes. Confesso que já fiquei em pousadas de postos de combustíveis por essas estradas e dormi bem mais confortável. Sinceramente, não indico este hotel, a menos que ocorra a mesma necessidade tive. Há varias outras opções próximo ao consulado, mas infelizmente como estava havendo uma feira nacional de artes naquela data, todos estavam lotados e este foi a única alternativa que tive. Mas a experiencia foi péssima, quatro com diversas infiltrações e um odor terrível de mofo.

Próximo ao centro de recife, bem cômodo para quem vair resolver questões de visto americano. Estrutura fisica antiga, mas tudo muito limpo. Café da manhã excelente.
Ar condicionado antigo e com gambiarras a vista. Lençol de solteiro minúsculo, travesseiros velhos e duros

Sugestões de melhoria
A gente costuma ficar hospedado no hotel central mais pela localização que nos atende. Desta vez o café da manhã atendeu bem e alguns funcionários melhoraram bastante a simpatia e empatia (2 pontos que tínhamos levantado em outras vezes como negativo). As acomodações são simples, Travesseiros são ruins, se possível leve o seu (desta vez esqueçamos e a noite foi desagradável). A descarga do quarto 401 está descendo água direto o que para momento tão complicado ecologicamente como vivemos é primordial o conserto disso. Mas são colocações pontuais e espero que melhorem neles.
