Excellent stay with friendly staff!

helpful porterpersonal servicefriendly managerfaulty heating
My experience was great! The porter, Kenneth, greeted me with a smile and helped with my bags. Matheus, the manager, helped me get a room when my flights were canceled and systems were down. I received a personal service I won't forget.
The heating was not working. The rooms were cold. The quality felt average for the price.

the location is convenient, close to museums and public transport.
i found several issues . the bathroom smelled unpleasant, despite reporting it to the staff. housekeeping did not return to clean the room after stating they would, thus the room was not cleaned that day.
