People - great, hotel expensive vs. what it offers
Búzios is beautiful. Priscilla and the girls at breakfast and Jonathan at the bar save the place. Cleanliness is low, different than Brazilian culture in general. Hotel in not kid or senior friendly at all.

They need to get bigger baskets for the bathroom and give a little paint in some areas in the rooms that obviously need a little fix or upgrade. It's a nice hotel, great employees but a bit run down.

Lovely spot for an affordable stay
A lovely hotel nestled just outside of the city center. The pool area lacks great wifi reception, and while they have food and beverage service throughout the hotel, I’d pass on the food. The breakfast is well appointed, especially with the fresh fruit. However, any food through the expanded daily menu was not tasty. The pool deck chairs seemed a bit dirty, so you’ll want a towel. Luckily, the hotel provides daily, complimentary towels for the pool or beach. Overall, the rooms were spacious, comfy, and clean. The staff was very friendly and the ease of street parking makes this hotel worth the value.

One of the best hotels we stayed in Brazil . I’m very picky about cleaning and this one was very clean. Everything (flooring, bed, walls, windows, curtains, furniture in excellent condition) and I loved the decor. Balcony was so nice with a large space, a table and a hammock looking at the most beautiful views. The staff was very helpful and there were no waiting in line or waiting too long for checking in. The location is perfect! A 15 minute walk to the center and to the beaches.. I highly recommend this place.

Staff was amazing from the moment we arrived. It was raining so they ran out with a umbrella for us. They took our bags straight to the rooms. Also when we decided to extended our stay in Buzios and there hotel was booked, they offered to help us take our bags across the street to the new hotel. Hotel was very clean and in good condition. Will definitely be staying here again.
