Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Remote from the airport — It's a 45-minute drive from Guarulhos, and guests on a layover noted it's a long trek — plan transport accordingly.
  • Small rooms in some categories — A guest on a brief stay found the room on the smaller side, though still clean and functional.
  • Limited English spoken by staff — One guest noted that staff were friendly but didn't speak much English — non-Portuguese speakers may face some communication barriers.
  • Weekday corporate focus — The hotel mainly hosts business events during the week, so leisure guests might find the atmosphere less personal on those days.
