Hotels in Cidade Universitária, Recife from CA $24

"Great safe hotel and very close to shopping/dining in Recife."

"Excelente atendimento. "

"the hotel is located only one block from the beach, a few miles from all the good restaurants and shopping center. Also, not sure about swimming on the beach, this hotel has an amazing pool on the rooftop with bar service and awesome views"

"O Hotel é excelente, mas peca nos detalhes como reposição do café que era cortesia, reposição do sabonete liquido no chuveiro, reposição da água. Tudo tinha que ser solicitado e demorava muito para ser atendido."

"Foi maravilhosa a minha estadia... equipe excelente, em especial a recepcionista Aline e Joana."

"Amazing breakfast, amazing views, excellent staff, great stay!"

"A localização é muito boa, apenas isso. O quarto tinha cheiro de mofo e as cortinas eram bem velhas. O café da manhã é pago. O atendimento não é nada amistoso ou simpático. Parece que estão fazendo um favor, sempre."

"very pleasant experience."

"First, keep in mind: English speakers are rare in Recife. The hotel is decent but not exceptional; however, stained bed sheets were a letdown. Remember, in Brazil, toilet paper can't be flushed. Breakfast at the restaurant is average, but steer clear of the flavorless juices. Room service food was disappointing too! The grilled chicken was dry, making it hard to chew. It's unbelievable I paid over $20.00 US dollars for that! Also, they lack a serving cart, so they handed me the plate on a tray to leave outside the door for later collection. There are limited public transportation options around the hotel, with only Uber and taxis available. Bus stops are distant, and the neighborhood is unsafe. It's not advisable to walk alone, even though it's considered the best neighborhood in town. Overall, the city isn't safe. Essential items to bring to this hotel include a power converter (220W power outlets only), a Brazil plug adapter (incompatible with European and North American plugs), and a non-slip bath mat (not provided, and the floor is very slippery). While the bedroom air conditioner works well, brace yourself for heat and humidity once you step into the hallway. Recife's average temperature hovers around 102°F, with high humidity. Be prepared for the weather!"
