Excellent hotel right in the heart of everything.
Trevor, 2-night trip

Good location - close to Lapa, Gloria and Cinelândia. You can walk to Flamengo beach and Gloria Marina for a boat ride. The rooms are basic but comfortable and the shower is hot with excellent water pressure. The breakfast is good.

Fernando, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The room was very colorful, but it was very comfortable. the lights and different settings were very cool. very modern . The staff was very nice and professional, especially Leo. For a foreigner is very difficult to adapt to Brazil, everything felt different to me, but he explained to me everything and was very patient.

2/10 Poor

Hotel did not actually accept reservation

Hotel claims to have lost my reservation and so I had to find accommodation elsewhere. Front desk staff were very helpful in locating a replacement hotel, but this situation never should have happened in the first place

There's some ants that i found at the room that i was in. It wasn't thoroughly clean. Overall it was average not good.
Jonatas, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Wifi is not at all working AC is broken and not at all working Bath room is built in such a way that door glasses can break any time Really dissatisfied with the room and experience They have not provided the room that we opted, Istead of quadruple they give 3 and 2 sharing. Its not at all worth of what we paid for hotel and feel like we paid more money with less comfort and less amenities
Roni, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Hotel muito bom, quarto limpo, café da manhã bem variado, equipe maravilhosa, gentis e prestativos. Cheguei no hotel às 08:00, e deixaram eu entrar antes, ainda bem, pois estava com a minha filha pequena muito cansada. Outro ponto é a localização, tem bastante coisas por perto. 10/10. Até a próxima!

4/10 Fair

No dia de me hospedar o hotel entrou em contato comigo falando que não tinha condições de me receber, deram a opção de cancelar ou realocar para um hotel parceiro. Então já que é parceiro vou considerar também isso para avaliação. Ficamos no Parque Hotel, que é bem mais barato, porém não recebemos nenhum reembolso parcial. Dando a entender que ainda ganharam vantagem, pois paguei o preço do Villa Rica. Quando chegamos no hotel, nos barraram falando que o Villa Rica não tinha comunicado nada, entramos em contato e conseguiram um quarto. O quarto não tinha ar condicionado, tivemos que deixar uma janela aberta que dava pro poço de ar, que por ser primeiro andar ainda estava sujo, também não tinha comunicação com a portaria, o ralo do banheiro estava bem entupido, os funcionários não queriam ajudar. Por exemplo, de dia fomos pedir roupa de cama e falaram que só forneciam a noite, mas a noite quando pedimos falaram que tinha acabado e que era pra ter pedido de dia.Na saída ficamos esperando e gritando alguém para abrir, pois a funcionária estava distraída. De bom somente o fato do quarto estar limpo, e o café da manhã simples porém ok (aliás as funcionárias da cozinha são as mais educadas e simpáticas).
