We checked out three hours after checking in. The property and the room are old, dark, and dirty. Hair on the bedding and floor of room. The room was extremely hot and not cooling down. The fixtures in the room were old and “creaky” and seemed ready to break unless you handled with extreme care. Several negative reviews have appeared in the last two months since I booked this reservation. Based on those reviews, I was very concerned about bedbugs. We found a much better hotel two blocks away for only slightly more money. The pictures are NOT accurate depiction of the property.

There was no parking due to construction. The hotel’s answer was “you are on your own.” We drove around for a couple hours to find street parking. On the plus side, once we were at the hotel, a nice man named Reynaldo helped us find overnight parking for a fee. The hotel room smelled strongly of mildew. It was disgusting. The cleaning staff’s solution was to spray chemicals in the corner - which just made it worse. The best thing about the hotel is the location.

Loved the location of the hotel (the only issue was the current construction of the road in front). But Rudolpho was a big help with our luggage, getting parking for our rental, and then suggesting evening spots with music! I would highly recommend this place. Great courtyard with pool to relax during the heat of the afternoon

The courtyard with the pool was so nice as well as the entryway. There are some good restaurants within walking distance. The room was quiet even in the middle of the city. Their parking lot was blocked off because of construction, but we found another lot that let us park overnight.

We are Google VIP platinum. This was the worst Expedia star rating to actuality we ever experienced. Rated on google at 5 star and NOW on expedia down at 4 star it's in our opinion a total distortion of other hard working hoteliers efforts who maintain and cherish their star rating. 1 out of 2 working elevators . The elevator that works 4 ft by 4ft, used for hours by cleaning staff. Road access stonework cutting for months based on expedia reviews. Bathroom is in our opinion a dirty 2 star. Staff eating in work clothes next to eating area. Receptionist walked of job. Ivan the unhelpful manager with a terrible manner. Ruined wheels on suitcase due to dragging suitcase across stones and dust. Dust everywhere. Beds were good. Door had 2" gap below door for geckos and 1" above , it had literally shrunk and had easy access to prize open door for theft. We have 45 nights of hotels in 2024. Some 2 star or 3 star . In our opinion they were still better than this hotel. We filed a report with pictures. ViP extra was 2 500ml juice bottles with a casa Do Belem logo that opened far to easy. Upgrade never offered.
