disturbing security valuable necklace
the rooms were comfortable. it was easy to walk to the famous steps, Escadaria Selarón
I didn't like the security at the door during the night shift. i think i was targeted for questioning, even though i was in and out frequently. this was very disturbing. i also lost my necklace from inside my room. It was valuable since it was from my grandmother.

faulty air conditioning terrible odor
The staff was helpful and spoke English, which I appreciated. The rooftop offered a great night vibe. I ordered a Caipirinha.
The air conditioning in my room did not function properly. Maintenance came three times but the issue remained unresolved. The air would operate for only an hour before shutting off, causing me to repeatedly press the power button all night. The room also had a terrible odor.
