Multiple reviews cite unclean rooms, hair in corners, dirty bathtubs and inconsistent housekeeping, so cleanliness is noticeably below average.

Many guests praise reception staff (named staff like Roger, 'meninos da recepção', 'personal encantador') as attentive and helpful, though a few report rude desk interactions or invoice/NF issues.
Location
9.6
Consistently reported as excellent—walking distance to Copacabana/beach, close to metro, frequently listed as a main positive.

Mixed reports: some rooms described as impecável while others mention old/mushy beds, maintenance problems and lack of bedside lamps.
Amenities
8.2
Amenities (breakfast buffet, play area/brinquedoteca, jacuzzi in some units) are often present and liked, though there are complaints about slow elevators, occasional maintenance and a dirty playground.

6.8
Mixed sentiment: several guests call it poor value ('pior custo benefício', 'not worth the money') while others note good cost-benefit; overall slightly below target.
Food and Beverage
8.3

Não recomendo, a não ser que seja por algo bem específico. No meu caso eu precisava de um hotel com banheira por conta d
Cons:

Camareiras conversando nos corredores como se estivessem na praia. Fui acordado diariamente praticamente com MUITO BARULHO! Barulho de limpeza, empurrando móveis e MUITA CONVERSA EM ALTO VOLUME! Não recomendo!

Certamente, ficaria novamente no Royal.
Pros:

Quarto e banheiro amplos, equipe educada, café da manhã espetacular, tive uma atenção especial, pq precisava de um café antes do horário e consegui. A localização foi perfeita, próxima ao metrô e muitos comércios.

Cons:

Não gostei dos travesseiros, muito "moles" e "vazios", mas deu pra passar.

Pros:

O hotel é bom, confortável e bonito. É perto da praia e os funcionários foram atenciosos. Gostaria de destacar o Branco, da recepção que foi super prestativo e atencioso com uma questão que tive no meu primeiro quarto e que, prontamente, dedicou seus esforços para resolver e promover a melhor acomodação possível.

Cons:

O mal cheiro do banheiro foi o pior ponto. Não era uma questão de limpeza, pois era perceptível que o time de limpeza passava lá e realmente lavava o banheiro. Era um problema da encanação, aparentemente, pois subia um odor muito forte do ralo. Deixava a porta do banheiro fechada para não alastrar para o quarto, mas era horrível quando precisava entrar no banheiro depois para utilizá-lo.

O café da manhã é bom, mas alguns itens ainda deixam a desejar para que seja um conceito de café da manhã "muito bom". O bolo é meio "passado", pão de queijo murchos, alguns itens muito oleosos. No final, é bom.. não chega a qualificar como ruim. Mas fico de regular para bom.

Ruim.
Cons:

Acústica ruim, camareiras muitas vezes limpando os quartos conversando muito alto, fui acordado por esse barulho praticamente todos os dias. Pelo preço que eles cobram, fica muito abaixo do que se esperava.

Bien ubicado, cómodo, buen desayuno y personal amable.
Pros:

Muy bien ubicado, a dos cuadras de la playa, sector seguro y con muchas ofertas para comer y comercio. El personal muy amable, desayuno tipo buffet muy variado.

Cons:

Hay detalles en la decoración de las zonas comunes que se ven un poco descuidados, no es nada grave, pero podrían trabajar en ellos porque se arreglan muy fácil.
