Guaiba Island, Rio de Janeiro State hotel rooms at the Independent

"Bom lugar maravilhoso "

"Very convoluted check in process. Not well maintained. Hard to enter the area before elevator, they have a weird facial recognition gate next to elevator with very little space. Pillow cases and sheets may be clean but were all stained and give impression of dirt. Strange to have hallway lights off on motion sensor lights (spooky feel) instead of a constant low energy light. Would not stay again unless very cheap, which it was. Did not use pool, so maybe that’s a good reason for the place. "

"A minha estadia foi ótima ! Mas em relação a alimentação poderia ter mais variedades , achei poucas opções ."

"Excelente estadia! Estrutura muito boa, área de lazer ótima (destaque para a piscina oceânica e para a piscina aquecida). A comida é maravilhosa, sempre com muita variedade. O único ponto negativo para mim foi a falta de informação sobre as instalações por parte da recepção."

"Great room size, amazing staff, great facilities. Had some ants in the washroom but being in a tropical country I guess that’s expected. "

"Really amazinv views and staff"

"Nossa estadia foi maravilhosa, pousada bem localizada, os funcionários sempre muito solícitos e gentis, café da manhã muito bom. E ainda tem um cafézinho e chá com torradas todos os dias a tarde. Limpeza dos quartos e dependências excelentes. Voltaremos com certeza."

"There were a few parts of the room that needed maintenance such as the curtains. The bed is very firm, so uncomfortable for me. The air condition worked fine, but it only worked in the bedroom. There was none in the bathroom. The bathroom had everything that you needed, I do wish that more toiletries were available (I.e. q-tips, cotton swabs, soap, beach towel, etc.). The hot water and water pressure was wonderful!"
