Ilha de Jaguanum, Rio de Janeiro State hotel rooms at the Independent

"The scenery is unmatched. The accommodation provides privacy and a quiet space. Every morning, I looked forward to waking up so that I could eat their amazing breakfast; everything was fresh: the fruits, the juices, etc. The majority of the staff were friendly and helpful. My only criticism is that the wifi did not reach our room. When we wanted to use the wifi, we would have to leave the room in order to get any decent signal. Overall we loved our stay."

"Deck chairs have no cushion the metal bars of the chair make them not fit for purpose The staff all great Room very clean Restaurant was excellent "

"Great hotel at a great price. Highly recommended!"

"Staff is rude. Beds are horrible. 3 single beds strapped together STAY SOMEWHERE ELSE!!"

"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. "

"Great location. Easy to find hotel. Breafast is good. The room is nice."
