Royal Rio Palace Hotel

Royal Rio Palace Hotel

8/10 Good
"Stayed only 3 days, WiFi never worked, ac was not functional, puddles of water kept appearing under the sink. I complained, first they said it would be fixed, it wasn’t. Next day they offered to change my room but had to be done the following morning, which was my last day. Would still recommend for the location."
