“This 3-star hotel places you in Glória, a historic district within easy reach of Flamengo Beach. The practical amenities-air conditioning, minibars, and in-room WiFi-suit both leisure and business, while its proximity to the Glória metro station opens up easy access to the city. I noted it as a solid choice for those keen to explore Rio's cultural side without breaking the bank.”
