Was very apprehensive about staying in Lapa but after arriving I felt so much better. The hotel is in a perfect spot which made it easy to see Santa Teresa, the Lapa arches and sample local nightlife in Lapa. The staff were all so helpful and made our stay perfect. Would definitely stay again if I come back to Rio.

Kind and helpful personell. Room was small an unpractical, but it worked. Toilet and shower was in a separate room in the hallway. Room was dark.. wires(looked hot-wired) stikking out from lamp. Some lamps not working. Dark in the hallway. Had to use flashlight to find my self into the room. Breakfast was good. Sketchy neighbourhood.... dirty, much traffic, people sleeping in the streets. I did not like the location at all.

The staff are generally friendly. Our first check-in at 3pm at Monte Alegre was smooth by friendly staff. Two days after, we decided to stay two extra days and paid via Expedia. I reached front desk at 8am to inform our extension, the in- charge staff suddenly picky about my reservation displayed name (a English called name) not match my passport name (a Chineses Canadian). The other two staff appeared not willing to help me. I connected to Expedia and made them discussed on my phone. Still i got stuck with non-refundable paid, frustrated and upset. Looking back been travel latin America for 8 years, i never be picky on this issue. Expedia identified that's me who paid reservation and I carried my legal stamped passport. Why picky? Due to his bad mood or dislike Asian foreigner? My wife suggested check out first and come back later. As expected, we met same afternoon staff and he proceeded as what he did two days ago without issue. Hotel Managers should maintain good customer service spirit of front desks.

Mesmo com 2 ou 3 atendentes na recepção, o check in e checkout é um tanto demorado. Eles parecem querer passar a impressão de que estão sempre ocupados demais para atender quando o hóspede chega ao balcão. O cartão que é usado pra abrir a porta do quarto falha com frequência. O café da manhã é razoável; tem opções mas a qualidade deixa um pouco a desejar. Ficamos no 1° bloco, que tem 6 andares, e o elevador só comporta 2 pessoas por vez. Acredito que não voltaria a me hospedar lá.

Excelente hospedagem. A sugestão que fiz da outra vez, de instalação de ducha higiênica, pelo menos no quarto que fiquei agora estava atendida. Espero que todos os demais também tenham.

A equipe é impecável, super prestativos e simpáticos. Mas o quarto deixou a desejar um pouco. Televisão bem antiga que só pegavam poucos canais, chuveiro demorava muito pra esquentar, controle do ar tava ruim. Se for pra literalmente só dormir, atende a necessidade. Mas poderiam dar umas melhorias!
