8.2/10 Very Good! (620 reviews)

It's close to the airport, Santos Dumont. The room was huge but I didn't like the fact there were 3 beds in it: 2 twin and 1 king. No coffee maker. Headboard and night stands were very dated. Water pressure was strong and shower stall had shampoo and conditioner but no soap. Toilet has a bidet which I liked. I had a room facing the street and could street noise because the windows in the bathroom were kept open even though I had the bathroom door closed before going to bed. All the noise from the hallway i could also hear even with the room door was closed. Only 1 elevator was working and the voice on the elevator was quite loud. I didn't get to try the breakfast because I slept on so I couldn't comment on the quality and selection.
