Hotel Continental Business
A localização é boa. Café da manhã razoável, funcionário da reposição do café é bastante mal humorado. Internet não funciona no quarto. Estacionamento tem que deixar a chave com manobrista.

From room service prices, to the taste of every single item I ordered I would stay here again in a heartbeat! The staff was fantastic, but I did have a native Brazilian Portuguese speaker with me to translate. I had a WONDERFUL experience.
