This hotel surpassed my expectations. The hotel and rooms were clean and kept up. The decor in the room was a little dated but clean and included a fridge which was nice. The rooms were a little noisy (you could hear people in the next rooms) but we have found that this is very common in Brazil. Hotels are just different here than they are in the U.S. The front desk staff was very nice, spoke English and willingly gave suggestions and answered any questions we had. The stay included free breakfast which was fruit, breads, juices, coffee, eggs and sandwich fixings (standard Brazilian breakfast). The hotel also has wifi which was great. We were able to surf the internet with no problems, but it was a little slow for FaceTime/skype. The location is very close to downtown Canela and only a 10 minute drive to the waterfalls, also only a 10 minute drive to downtown Gramado. I would stay here again.
