Reviews and Ratings
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms we reserved were smaller than expected, and the cleaning service missed a day, but the rooms are spacious, although lacking a few things. Wi-Fi was spotty on our floor due to ongoing reconstruction.
The hotel offers okay rooms with some amenities like a fridge, small kitchen, and cable TV; however, noise from other rooms and a small pool are drawbacks. The service is friendly but slow at times. The location is not ideal but still convenient with nearby food and drink options. The dining experience is good but might come with an extra cost. Overall, the facilities are decent with room for improvement.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of good and not-so-good experiences. The room was spacious but unfortunately located next to a construction site, making it noisy due to air-conditioning sounds from other rooms. On the bright side, the room had nice amenities like a fridge, small kitchen with a microwave, and a flat panel TV with some cable channels. The service was excellent, with friendly and helpful staff providing information and recommendations. However, there was a minor setback as one staff member couldn't accommodate a request due to sanitary regulations. The location had its charm with lounge chairs, a rooftop veranda, and an indoor seating area, although it was described as tiny by some. The dining options were varied; while the breakfast spread had a good selection, some found it quite poor and not impressive, especially the coffee. Despite these mixed experiences, the hotel offered good value for money overall.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were spacious and tidy, but the noise coming from the air-conditioning of other rooms was quite bothersome. The service was excellent, with a well-educated and friendly staff offering helpful recommendations. The location was convenient for exploring the center of Porto Alegre, but the size of the hotel was a bit too small.
The hotel's location wasn't ideal, but not far from central attractions. The rooms were nice, tidy, and spacious, but lacking a few pillows. The service was helpful and very friendly. The location had great views and a chill area. The dining offered good variety, but the dining area wasn't pleasant. The facilities were very good.
The hotel is conveniently located near the city center with nice facilities, but the slow check-in process can be frustrating. The rooms are well-equipped, despite some issues with the elevator buttons.
I stayed at this hotel, and it was a great experience overall. The rooms, although they were like apartments with a usable kitchen, were a bit smaller than expected. They were, however, clean and well-stocked with warm blankets. The service was friendly and helpful, though they seemed a little lost initially with multiple guests arriving simultaneously. The location was the best part, within walking distance to a good range of shops and restaurants. The dining options were quite nice, with a good variety of tasty dishes, though served in the reception area which I found less pleasant. The facilities were good, including lounge chairs, a rooftop veranda, and indoor seating areas.
The hotel is not very fancy but has good amenities like a fridge, small kitchen with microwave, and a flat-panel TV with some cable channels. The rooms are nice, tidy, and spacious, although nothing too extraordinary. The service is very friendly and helpful, despite some delays in check-in. The location is very central with a great pool and chill area, but might be a bit unsafe at night. The dining experience offers a good spread of choices for breakfast. Overall, a decent value for money option with comfortable rooms and friendly service.
The hotel had a good kitchen assembly in the rooms, but they were a bit cramped and facing the noisy street. The service was friendly and helpful with information and restaurant recommendations, although a bit slow at times. The location was wonderful with great views, a pool, and chill area, but might not be very safe at night. The dining experience had a good spread of choices like breads, scrambled eggs, fruits, and cakes in the morning.
My stay at the hotel was quite pleasant overall. The room, although a bit noisy due to the air-conditioning sounds from other rooms, had a small kitchenette which was a plus. This time around, I found the room to be much better compared to my previous stay.
