Great view in a good area for food, markets, activities, sketchy at night but not if you are familiar with Rio and know how to navigate. Seems newly established, no satellite tv only netflix or "smart TV" apps, and the TV is clear across the room with no couch closer,unreliable AC at this point that runs and drips down the wall even when run for short times, no place to put clothes except small rack, and one small table no sofa. Adequate little kitchen and all appliances new, shower is great. Just a little spartan now but I am sure will be better. The blackout drapes do not cover the windows. The positives are this building, I like this area, the view is really great, the place lacks ambiance, but is practical. Oh. The bed is comfortable which is important too. After arriving and feeling a little annoyed with all the small detail problems, I settled in and adjusted and enjoyed my stay. I can see this in the 30 dollar a night range for area, new appliances and shower and bed and view,definitely not 90 dollars at this point. for lack of amenities and problems noted above....but really, super helpful people, a great great view, and it is in Rio, how bad can an ocean view that is pretty new be in RIo? Would stay again at current discounted price.
