Bad

Pros: I wish there was one thing I liked but I thought really hard and could not come up with anything

Cons: The reasons for my negative review. 1- location. I have traveled to many different places around the world third world countries included but this has to be the worst location. I saw a guy stabbed another guy with a broken Heineken bottle not too far in front of this hotel. 2 - Filthy street, room. When you walk in front of this hotel, the smell of human feces grosses me out. I saw repeatedly human feces litterally right in front of the hotel door step and as you walk out and if you're not carefully you will step on the s**t. The hotel has a security camera but when I brought up the issue about people taking a s**t right in front of the camera the hotel management staff would not do anything about it. The room has cock roaches crawling everywhere. 3 - loud noise. Next to the hotel is a bar that plays ear deafening loud music late into the night frequently. I'm talking about way past 11 pm. 4 - Unfriendly/uncooperative, mean staff. The hotel offers daily house keeping. I would ask them to clean my room every three days to help the hotel conserve water from washing the bed sheets, towels (do they wash them? I don't know because there are a few instances the bed sheets smelled horribly after they changed them out) but my request is often ignored. Their excuse? They pretend not to understand English. Last but not least complain about this horrible hotel, I witnessed the two african brazilian ladies had a huge fight that went on for a long time and the worst part was I was there but that didn't stop them from cursing each other out really loud (I understand Portugese). If they are in the same team and have no respect for each other then they would not have any respect for the cusomters. Stay away from this horrible hotel. You have been warned

I could be better.

Pros: The location and the staff.

Cons: Their towels stink, the bedroom had a funny smell and the drain of the bathroom was clogged.

Don't have high hopes for it

Pros: The location only. In my opinion, Lapa is a beatiful and historical place, so it is always full of people and I felt safe over there.

Cons: The hotel at all. Okay, it is a 1-star hotel and I got it. Although, I did not mean to stay over because I intended to know the Rio de Janeiro city (and not to enjoy the hotel), but every time I was at the Hotel Americano I had a problem: shower temperature, quality of the bedroom and... I recommend them to change their sheets and towels!!!

Bad

Pros: horrible. full of mold. no hot water and the room smelled really bad

Cons: everything. it was horrible

Cheap single room if you absolutely don't want to be in a nice hostel

Pros: Location is walking distance to nearby attractions. The price was good for a private room. It cost less than hostels of 4+ beds in one room.

Cons: The rooms are not good. Everything is very worn. Visible damage everywhere. Mattress was sunken in and totally deformed. Bedding and covers had visible stains. "Hotel" is laid out like a motel - the rooms face the outside and can be pretty loud. They are also dark with just one small window in my room.
