We stayed in rio hotel for 11 nights it was great helpful staff nice breakfast very good location room cleaning every day..thanks will back again as i will travel to Istanbul
The hotel represent very good service by the price they want. Perfect location. Actually parking is not exist. They using street parking spaces which is paid and hardly to find.
The hotel is decent; nothing fancy. You get what you pay for. It's situated in a strategic position close to all major means of transport. The hotel is small; the breakfast is fine. I stayed there for 5 day and it was okay.
Lokasi yang sangat baik. Ada menyediakan sarapan pagi. Lif di lobby perlu menggunakan tangga, tidak sesuai untuk yang tidak menggunakan tangga. Tetapi mereka sangat membantu untuk mengangkat beg kita.
Dåliga personal, dåligt och gammal mat, smutsig hotell och otrevliga personal

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Disliked: Room comfort
Sitedeki tanıtım resimleri güzeldi. Ama kalıdığımız oda havalandırma boşluğuna bakıyordu. İki gece için idare eder diyemiyorum çünkü asansör çok ses yapıyor.
В нашем номере в общем все было отлично. Состояние за свою цену нормальное. Уборку делали каждый день, очень чисто. Обслуживание супер. Свежий завтрак и приветливый персонал. Расположение отличное для шоппинга.

Nothing to right home about
Small and very typical hotel in the heart of the city.
Hotel location is good.
Room was clean however housekeeping service was not done during my stay.
Price is ok at this time of the year.
I hope management ensures regular cleaning to rooms every day
Hotel vicino alle fermate del tram e della metro, personale gentilissimo, colazione a buffet, pulizie stanze e cambio asciugamani giornalieri, nelle vicinanze money change e ristoranti convenienti, avevo un stanza singola piccola ma completa del necessario, consiglio a tutti questo Hotel, comodo ed economico
