Our night stay was okay in general. The room was clean etc. However, we were left disappointed when being charged an extortionate amount to use the washing facilities ($360 BR) when there was no mention of a charge. We have got in contact with the hotel to sort this privately, however there has been no response on the matter after multiple attempts to contact them.

The A/C wasn't working so it was warm in the room without windows and there wasn't any hot water. The shuttle service did not operate as indicated so we walked from and to the hotel from Terminal 2. Fortunately the location of the hotel was the primary benefit, it was about a 15min walk.

Staff at check in (9/9/25) were amazing, the girl at the desk was lovely and spoke amazing English. Also, we had a great waiter in the restaurant, younger guy who also spoke amazing English, same evening we checked in - he was wonderful and helpful. The hotel is not fancy, very basic, but it was very clean and very quiet which we greatly appreciated.

The place was average. For the cost, I don’t think this is good value and policy requires them to considerably upcharge on second guests and early check Ins. But the staff was incredibly friendly and helpful. I suggest going to the other hotels near the airport

Hôtel location is excellent- close to the beach and close to all the stores and restaurants. Staff is helpful in finding tours, etc. The rooms are a bit run down but clean. No microwave, coffee machine or tea pot in the room or in easy access at the hotel. For us the biggest issue was no access to filtered water - had to either buy or ask the staff to fill our water bottles in the basement staff kitchen.

Ok for a quick stopover. Clean, good A/C, wife thought the bed was great, me…it was OK. Staff was not welcoming or cordial. They acted like they were doing us a favor…pretty gruff. Be advised, this hotel is built into the nearly abandoned Terminal 1. Even the taxi drivers did not know where it was. Again…for one night when our flight was cancelled, it worked.

It does what it says - super close to the airport (it is in the now mothballed terminal 1), so convenient place to rest your head for an early flight. Rooms are basic and have no windows, but clean. Shuttle is efficient or you can walk for 10 minutes

The staff was very nice and accommodating. I was able to use the room from 10am - 8pm which was fine for me with my midnight departure. Otherwise, I wouldn't recommend the hotel for a longer stay. The room was very basic, but clean. And be aware that the hotel location is in Terminal 1 at Rio (GIG). T1 is closed, all flights go in and out of Terminal 2. There is a free shuttle between, but you have to call the hotel and ask for it.
