Avoid
Shower water temperature mild to cold, one day sheets were missing on the bed, towels left on bathroom floor, toilet paper roll, not replaced, water in minibar not refilled, slow wi-fi. Terrible stay for a Best Western hotel whereas the other two in Rio are really good places.

Poderia ter sido melhor, pecaram na limpeza
O apartamento em si é bom, porém o que pecou foi a limpeza, havia tuchos de cabelo no chão do banheiro e os travesseiros reservas que estavam dentro do guarda roupa estavam sem fronha e com marcas de babá na qual nem usamos e outro ponto é a TV, péssima qualidade dos canais, poderiam pelo menos colocar uma TV a cabo prezando pela boa estada do hóspede.
