Everything but the wifi
Everything was good except the wifi didn’t reach our room. Not enough signal for basic search functions. The only place it worked was the bathroom.

Great dining options and a friendly staff. Hotel is in need of attention, from my phone line not working to a sink that wouldn’t drain. A little preventive maintenance goes a long way.

This hotel has 24 hour shuttle to the airport, which is the main attraction for us, who arrive late to the airport. The breakfast is amazing. The staff is good as well. The only downside is the bed. It only has a thin sheet to cover. The bed blanket is in the closet and is very dirty with some stinks. Overall, if you are just going there to catch up an airplanes, it is a great choice. I would rate this hotel a 4.5

A unica vantagem é a localização. Para quem precisa dormir próximo ao Galeão é ótimo. Mas o hotel possui quartos mal cuidados , umas persianas que parecem lonas de caminhão. O café é ótimo porém falta cuidado com o hóspede. ovos , mingau frios …

O chuveiro era ruim, saindo agua para todo lado. O barulho do ar condicionado, incomodou a noite toda.
A TV estava com a tela escura.
Enfim, as instalações sem manutenção.
O café da manha é bom, com variedades de pães frescos, salada de fruta, frios. Basico, mas muito bom!
