ibis Rio de Janeiro Santos Dumont
Rooms were clean, breakfast buffet was varied, and the price was reasonable. Not the most touristic part of town but close to many places where to eat.

Hotel Atlântico Avenida
The room was not fully clean, the air conditioning did work but here no instructions on how to use it and the first night I slept without AC . Additionally the evening staff was unbelievably rude and the street very noisy. I wouldn’t recommend.
