I'm not one of those b|tchy hard to please travelers that needs the lap of luxury and 5 stars to be happy. I'm rather tolerant. In fact, some of my most memorable "lodging" experiences have been in tents and huts in remote parts of the world. Mold on a rock in the forest is OK. Mildew in a wooden hut... More

I stayed at this hotel in 2000 and had an ok experience. Therefore, I thought it would be good to come back. What a change to the worst!! The rooms were dirty, tacky furnished and nothing has been done in terms of fresh paint and renovation. The furniture collapsed when I lifted my bag up and drove a rusty nail... More

I've stayed with my husband for 2 nights -- we're in honeymoon, travelling through Rio de Janeiro state. Our room was big and had a beautiful view. However, furniture, decoration did not look nice... scratched, faded... The bathroom really needed some refurbishment... mirrors with those black marks, and even the towels, were old and never seemed to be clean. For... More

That was the only beach I never went beacuse was very small, dirty and crowded. If you are going to stay here you must... More

We traveled to Buzios after a few days in... More
