Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Comfort and facilities are basic — While the hotel is clean and practical, some guests find the overall comfort and facilities modest. Room ratings for comfort are the lowest, and facilities score slightly below other categories.
- Check-in window ends at 22:00 — Check-in is only available between 14:00 and 22:00. If you're arriving late, you'll need to plan ahead as the front desk may not accommodate later arrivals.
- No on-site parking — The hotel does not list parking as an amenity, which could be a challenge if you're driving. You'll likely need to rely on public transport or nearby paid parking.
- Pets not allowed — The hotel has a strict no-pets policy, so you'll need to make other arrangements if travelling with a furry companion.

8.1Verified guest“I liked that the hotel is a few minutes' walk from the metro. They were also very understanding when we asked to cancel the second room we'd booked but didn't need. And in this area, you can find what I think is the best – and very cheap – hamburger in Sao Paulo.”
