I am in Belo Horizonte, Brazil for the next two weeks visiting friends so I was searching for a centrally located hotel at a moderate price. This is a nice hotel but it has seen it's best days somewhere in the distant past. Everything in it is dated especially in the rooms (here they call them apartments). I was in the 9th. Floor and still could hear the heavy noise of the city. Soon I found the reason, there are openings above the windows which cannot be closed. I guess they where built this way before air conditioning, but now in the dead of winter the room temperature was equal to the outside temperature at night. Good sleeping weather provided you don't have a reason to get up in the middle of the night to maybe go to the bathroom. Extremely nice and accommodating people here, and a nice "Morning Coffee" (their name for breakfast) at a restaurant on top of the hotel (12th. Floor). There's also a nice pool and a sauna on the roof, but I did not try either. The Internet is fast and easy to use. The elevators are efficient and quick, and check out time in not until 2 PM, a plus for me, but with all the good things this hotel has to offer, there are others as well or better appointed, with newer updated facilities for the same or better daily rate. Shop around, I did and found another hotel with similar facilities at a better price.
