The wifi didn’t work at all and my own internet as well. Ihad to leave my room to use the phone If I want to upload a picture or watch a little video. The connection is really really bad.

Clean and comfortable bedroom, breakfast ok, a cool rooftop and pool area, staff helpful.

Stayed in room 912 for 6 nights, the internet functioned about 10% of time during peek hours on any of these days. Charged (extorted) $R14.00 for a ($R4.00-6.00) 1.5 liter bottle of water at adjoining OK Cafe.

Stay 6 nights. Well positioned hotel for stays in the center of the city with Metro and Tram (VLT) two streets away with many choices of restaurants in the surrounding area. Comfortable bed with clean linen. Very good Breakfast with the usual assortment of breads, fruits, cold cuts, scrambled eggs, and sliced hotdogs in a tasty sauce. Tip - for drinking water there is the Pomar market located nearby at R. Evaristo da Veiga, 55 - 5 liters of water $R13.50

Noisy. The rooms are VERY noisy, no sound proof at all, we could hear every movement in the rooms next and above us, we were disturbed by guests. Loud noise from hallway and elevator too. Very Dark room, only 1 white light, no bed lights. Toilet didn’t flush. Very loud airconditioning. Gym is only open from 09.00 AM so basically useless if you want to workout before breakfast like us. Breakfast very unhealthy with lots of sugary and fast food. We missed plain yoghurt, whole grain bread, vegetables, etc. The food hygiene could be better. Food was out and uncooled for 4 hours on the buffet; things dried out or just went bad. Things were spilled or just messy and not cleaned up. One of us is vegetarian and could only eat the fruit and egg (if it was not run out). It’s really not okay if the meat sauce is drooling into the scrambled egg or on the cheese, but nobody cares. The guy running the restaurant was very rude. Also we saw them people declining breakfast whilst it was not even 10.00 yet. A LOT of homeless people right in front of the hotel. We were victim of attempted robbery with violence, further down the street, whilst waiting for the taxi. Be very careful because as a tourist, you are a target. We did not feel safe anymore in this neighbourhood.

Location is in the middle of city highlights and walking distance to many attractions and metro.

They could provide shampoo and conditioner for bath, along with the soap they already provide. Pillows could be better.

Pretty ok, as the name says. It was actually a good surprise, considering the price. I was expecting a lower quality. Comfortable bed, well functioning air conditioning, clean bathroom with great and hot shower and had wall sockets near the bed.

lots of homeless people in the area and saw some crime, but because carnaval was on all of this may have been heightened.

Stayed here for carnaval and great location, close to metro and to bar and food area. Good complimentary breafast and staff very friendly and helpful.

The pictures looked really good, but actually it wasn't, very old, out at the streets were dirty. And many tramps slept at the street.

The price acceptable and location ok near subway station

The aircondition was a little bit noisy and the staff wasn’t that friendly.

The location was great just near the City Center where I had bussiness and St Dumont AirPort. The breakfest was very good with a lot of options of fruits, breads, cheese and drinks (juice, null, coffee). The shower was good strong and hot. Air condition was working prosperly and there were blankets.

Wi-Fi did not work anywhere in the hotel for me, not in a great area (I went around the corner to buy water and got stopped by three different homeless people asking for money). The first room I had I saw two little bugs on the bed, they looked like silverfish but were brown. I asked for a different room and the next one seemed fine (but was a much smaller room), there was some little specks around one of the corners of the mattress, and the third night I found a little bug in the bed but it didn’t look like a bedbug. I didn’t get any bites, but photos included for reference. None of the safes worked, they are supposedly getting new ones. For the price being about half the cost of many other hotels that had lower ratings, it was not nearly as bad as it could have been. The area was a definite drawback and if you don’t have international data I would not recommend staying because Wi-Fi didn’t work.

Shower- good water pressure and hot water, rooms cleaned daily, breakfast was good, most of the staff spoke English and were very nice and helpful. I had to print out a voucher for sugarloaf mountain, and they did print it for me but charged R3 per page. The lobby is beautiful, the rooms are dated but still clean, if the hotel was in a different area I would stay again

I didn’t like the breakfast. The bread and cakes were hard, and there were hardly any options.

I thought the hotel was organized and clean. The rooms were spacious and the location is great.
